Psalm 119:126 (KJB) It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law.

David was frustrated with the lukewarm times in which he lived. He sought out God and encouraged Him to come soon because many people in his day were living as if God’s Law no longer had any meaning or purpose.

The Natural Man Will Always Jump the Fence

Mankind’s natural bent falls towards individuality and abiding in free-spiritedness rather than turning towards conformity and obeying commands of a ruling authority.

In what system or standard does your hope reside?

Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous. For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul? Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him? Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God? (Job 27:7-10 KJV)

Sometimes it seems that only enemies of God, who are ...
