Psalm 53:1a&b “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God.’ They are corrupt and their ways are vile;..” God does not fool around with truth. Man can debate or man can agree to disagree, but God does neither. He always wants His children to know absolute truth and to be faithful to Him. He wants us to be faithful, content–to live with perfect peace and enjoy security.None of that can be done if one does not know God and He wants all of us to know Him. Then gifts galore are showered. Have a great weekend.

Psalm 52:8b “I trust in God’s unfailing love forever and ever.” I guess God’s love is ok and He will probably keep His promises. Those are the words and thoughts of the majority of weak minded people. Every Christian can be and is absolutely positive God’s love is definite, never fails and lasts forever. Nothing, nothing gets better than that. Our Heavenly Father insists we know that truth so we never live with doubt or fear. Our human nature likes to insert doubt and fear; however, our God wants us to live with no fear and no doubt. We pray for such a strong faith.

Psalm 51:15 “Open my lips, Lord, and my mouth will declare your praise.” How much of our conversation is of little value? How much of our conversation is centered around our own circumstances and pleasures? How much of our conversation praises God and tells others about him? The percent of each area of conversation undoubtedly drops dramatically as each How much question is answered. Our inspired Psalmist suggests the opposite and makes this thought a prayer and you and I do too. We pray—-“Open my lips, Lord, and my mouth will declare your praise.”

Psalm 51:12 “Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.” Nothing in this short life compares to the joy we own because our eternity brings no sadness. Every once in a while we have a thrill on this earth because of a visit by someone we love and who loves us. Or we go on a special vacation. Or we have a special dinner out to celebrate a birthday or anniversary or something. We have a glass of champaign. But nothing can possibly give us the joy of knowing eternity in Heaven with all its glory and happiness is coming. That joy carries us always as we take our steps on this earth.

Psalm 51:11 “Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.” The worst experience anyone could possibly have is for God to remove Himself from anyone’s life. To be deserted by God would be disaster eternally. Doesn’t everyone realize the seriousness of ignoring or rejecting or choosing gods other than the True God? Many don’t is the ultra-sad truth. Our Psalmist realizes that ultra-sad truth as should you and I.
