Psalm 45:6 – 9 Memory verse: v 7
God hates anything wickedness and He vexes
His anger on anyone who practices wickedness. The bible has the stories of how
God vexed His anger on people who perpetuated wickedness. The Psalmist reveals
what the throne of God is. He didn’t restrain his adoration of Almighty God
expressing what His Kingdom is made of. Scepter means royal authority or staff
used as royal emblem. The emblem of our God is justice and righteousness.
Because it is His nature being just and righteous, He hates wickedness (Ps 5:5;
33:5).
There are some people who love to
practice wickedness. They love it so much that if they have not made trouble
with people, they are will not be happy. Wickedness comes in form of oppression,
abuse of all kinds, willful sins, luring people into evil, telling lies,
betrayal, etc. Christians should not practice or tolerate wickedness. For this
reason Ps 97:10 admonishes us that we should hate wickedness as our God does.
People who have no love find it easier to practice wickedness (1 Jn. 2:11;
3:15), Are you nursing any form of hatred for someone? Better repent of it now
before devil will lead you into wicked act.
Action: If there is
anyone who has offended you, make peace with the person today before devil will
lead you into wicked act.
Prayer: God, make me love righteousness and hate wickedness as you do in Jesus name.
