S2 Ep2251: "You Are A Wonder" Psalm 139 Series - Part 17 | Malcolm Cox | Quiet Time Coaching Episode 551

Malcolm Cox

Today, we look at verses nineteen to twenty-two of the Psalm.
“O that you would kill the wicked, O God, and that the bloodthirsty would depart from me—
those who speak of you maliciously, and lift themselves up against you for evil!
Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD? And do I not loathe those who rise up against you?
I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them my enemies.”

Question
Do you feel torn in any area of your life between God and the agenda of the world?

Suggestions
If you sense a struggle, can you offer it to God in prayer and ask him for strength to be decisive? Pray for the courage to distance yourself from unhelpful or harmful influences and to stand firm in your loyalty to God.

Conclusion
Next time, we will move on to verses twenty-three to twenty-four.
I am planning a spiritual experience day based on Psalm 139 in the spring of 2025. If you'd be interested, please email me at [e-mail].
