Psalms 12:1
Psalms 12:1
King James Version Psalm 12
Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth;
For the faithful fail from among the children of men.
Prayer
Psalm 12:1–8 (KJV 1900)
Help, Lord; for the godly man ceaseth;
For the faithful fail from among the children of men.
They speak vanity every one with his neighbour:
With flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips,
And the tongue that speaketh proud things:
Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail;
Our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy,
Now will I arise, saith the Lord;
I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
The words of the Lord are pure words:
As silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Thou shalt keep them, O Lord,
Thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
The wicked walk on every side,
When the vilest men are exalted.
The wicked walk on every side, we are in such a time where the vilest men are exalted
But, You were born for such a time as this!, God Loves you
you are not a mistake, God loves you!
God knew you before you were ever born. God Loves You
Jeremiah 1:5–9 (KJV 1900)
Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. But the Lord said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. Then the Lord put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.
a Jeremiah wasn’t the only one whom God declared knowing before they were even born.
Moses,
Jesus,
King Cyrus
Nebuchadnezzar .
Jesus declared that God knows every hair on your head by number
Matthew 10:26–31 (KJV 1900)
Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
God really does love you!
Saying all of that I can sum it up in 3 words:
He’s got you
not only does God got you, He gets you too.
i. your gifts and callings are then evidently created and imparted for your lifetime, that they may be made use of for the Glory of God. For the Glory of God both in you and for others, that together will raise a praise, yea many praises unto Father God or not
ii. these things are the testimonies that you bring back to the body of Christ, The Church, to exclaim and to exalt The Kingdom of God and His marvelous works. Le t The Church hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church. Let The Church see what the Spirit is showing the Church.
it is for this that the writer David is penning these lyrics
king saul was in office and he did walk in contradiction to the Word of The Lord, and he sought the destruction of David, God’s man for the day.
In this psalm we are going to see that there is help that the Holy Spirit will give us the context within this Holy Bible, if only we will hear & see what the Holy Spirit would show & tell us, The Church.
However, this bears a question ; are you a part of The Church of sheep, or a part of The slaughter of goats. And if you realize that you are lost, then God is loving you to repentance unto the acceptance of the Gift of Salvation in Christ Jesus our Lord.
2) Again there is a way, but it is not your way. Nor is it my way. No matter how religious it looks like are feels, vanity and pride can wiggle its way into your heart suddenly springing up unto your harm and/or possible destruction .
Ps 12:2-4 And the tongue that speaketh proud things:
Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail;
Our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
Is 55:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
James 1:26–27 (KJV 1900)
If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
