Today's
E-Votion The
Relationship between JESUS and HIS People
as seen in Psalm
139
Psalm 139 (New Living Translation)
21
O LORD, shouldn't I hate those who hate you?
Shouldn't I despise those who resist you?
22
Yes, I hate them with complete hatred,
for your enemies are my enemies. We
are continuing our study from Psalm 139, we will see the characteristics of our
relationship with JESUS.
You may be surprised and delighted to know how deeply it runs! JESUS
will save deal with the wicked (part 3)! For
two days we have been talking about how JESUS
expects us to be with wicked and evil people. Today we shift a bit. From
the lyrics to a song of mine, Do You Believe (listen
here), " Everything that's wrong will be made right." If
you are alive, breathing and reading this, you know that there is a lot of wrong
in this world. Some minor, some major beyond comprehension. Ever
blame GOD for it? Many do. In
theology, there is a study called, "The problem of evil." Theologians
and philosophers have been "wracking their brains" for hundreds of years
trying to figure out why there is evil in a world created by a Perfectly Good GOD. I
was one of those, many years ago. But, I found the answer, not by using my
mental prowess, but by reading The Book! There
is evil because of the evil one, Satan. He is a fallen angel serving the first
portion of his sentence by being removed from his place in heaven and thrown down to
the earth. His first recorded act of treason here was the seduction of Adam and
Eve to rebel against their CREATOR. Yes,
he is still here, along with a third of the angels who were cast out for rebellion
along with him. Their job is to infect a perfect world with
hatred, suffering, strife, misery and all the other qualities of this world that are
not from our Excellent LORD JESUS. Actually,
it is sin that brought all the suffering, and Satan and his demons just have to draw
people into sin to bring all the wrong into this world. Unlike
fallen man, they have no chance at redemption, but await the fate of being cast
in to the Lake of Fire, which was specially built for them. So when
David said, Yes,
I hate them with complete hatred,
for your enemies are my enemies. he
was referring to the LORD'S real enemies.
And we are to hate them also. We can hate them best by resisting them, fleeing
from their seduction and staying close to our LORD
through the battle! By the way, when I
referred to their job above, here is what I meant. None of this took the LORD
by surprise, and HE is more than in control of the
situation. Yes, HE has enemies, and yes HE
always was, is now and will always be Victorious in this battle. And
in HIS eternally old plan, we are to be victorious
also. JESUS won the battle once and for all
at the cross, and sealed the Victory with HIS
resurrection! The final stroke is us being redeemed! You
see, we, HIS people, are HIS
Victory! Each day as new believers present themselves to HIM
for HIS Grace and Redemption, we further complete
the sentence laid on Satan and the demonic angels. How
can you hate HIS enemies? Present yourself
to the Victor, JESUS, and let HIM
rule as SAVIOR and LORD! To
