Psalm 75: A Just Judgment is Coming

All people and all of time is inexorably headed toward a Great and Final Judgment on the Last Day. That is as certain as death and taxes. This day will come at The Judge’s choosing. Every human being has some awareness, though dim and widely suppressed, of the coming Accountability.

Snippets and signs of The Judgment will show up from time to time: earthquakes and earth shaking events happen, but the Lord holds the pillars steady until the Time; the cup of the wine of God’s wrath is poured out for the wicked here and there; the horns, the power, of some are brought down and some lifted up until the End.

The listed enemies of the Just Judge are the proud, the boastful, the arrogant, and the insolent. This attitude of the wicked must be judged: shaken, put down, made to drink, and cut off. This attitude in one’s own self must be discovered, repented of, and rooted out by the Cross. Repent now of this inner enemy: desire to control, judge others, blame and criticize, run my own life, “let me alone,” and various self serving and prideful thoughts. Lay the Cross on such thoughts. Receive forgiveness before judgment.
