Psalm: 69:1-23 Meditation:Obadiah: There is an old Jewish saying: God never sleeps. In this book, God has seen everything that the Edomites had allowed to happen to their cousins the Israelites, going so far as to dance upon their graves. He remembers and punishes those who had open disregard and malice towards Him and the …

Psalms: 16, 21 Meditation Romans: “Since they did not think it was worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind.” God has an interesting way of exacting judgment. He did a very similar thing in Egypt – first the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart and later Pharaoh hardened his …

Psalm: 66 Meditation Isaiah: The Jews of Isaiah’s day, not unlike Christians today, had a tendency not to be faithful. The early part of chapter 51 speaks of judgment and then we come to verse 17. The tone here changes from one of judgment to one of reconciliation. The LORD, like any good parent, may, …

Psalms: 14, 15 Meditation 2 Peter: If I were to apply a word to describe what Peter is saying here, it would be “watch” or “be vigilant”. He speaks of judgment, certainly the great flood, but also of a time when God’s patience runs low as the sands in an hourglass. Further, Peter warns us …

Psalm: 147 Meditation Luke: How easily our eyes are closed to ourselves as Jesus said in the “Sermon on the Mount”: clear out your own eye before judging someone else. While the Pharisee is judging Jesus, Jesus, is about to judge him. Like Jonah, the Pharisee hates the idea of God showing forgiveness and mercy …

Psalms: 128, 129, 130 Meditation 2 Kings: A woman prophet – or prophetess? Never! Well, actually they had been around since Moses’ day – even his own sister Miriam was a prophetess. Deborah, a judge in Israel was also a prophetess. Huldah, this prophetess tells Josiah that all of the disaster spoken of by Moses …

Psalm: 63 Meditation Acts: “Judge for yourself whether it is right in God’s sight to obey you rather than God.” (v. 19) This same conclusion was arrived at by the midwives in ancient Egypt when Pharaoh decreed that all Hebrew male children shall be killed. That was a persecution. This was to become a persecution …

Psalm: 96 Meditation Nahum: This book reawakens the Book of Jonah. About a hundred years before, a reluctant Jonah brought warning of judgment to Nineveh whereupon these heathens repented of their evil ways and to Jonah’s dismay they were spared. Not so now. Nahum is here to announce judgment. Assyrian warriors were the vilest of …

Psalm: 69 Meditation Obadiah: The Edomites (which don’t exist any longer) lived to the southeast of Israel and were closely related to the Jews. Edom sprang from Esau, Jacob’s older brother. Esau talked himself out of his birthright – he would later claim that Jacob “stole” it from him. Thus, the enmity. When the Babylonians …

Psalm: 94 Meditation Ezekiel: This is a rather grim prophecy of doom: judgment from God upon Israel. It appears that this is not a reference to end times. The passage is a little puzzling because as of its writing the Jews are, in fact, being held captive in Babylon. The chronic ailment of the Jews …
