Psalm 10, God not far off (Additional studies: Psalms Book One (1-41) Index)
What we see with our eyes today, is the mighty and powerful grinding the faces of the poor into the dust, and the righteous and humble being oppressed by the wicked schemes of the wicked. But these things are a temporary state of affairs in the history of the world. I do not envy the powerful politicians who ignore the established laws at the expense of the humble, in order to increase wealth and power to themselves. I look at their mansions and private jets, and pity them, really, because today they are living in their reward. In fact, I tremble for them, for I have seen in the pages of Scripture the depth of God’s wrath they are storing up for themselves. The longsuffering God is giving them a little window now to repent; but as the psalm reveals, most of the wicked use their window to deceive themselves into thinking that God will never require their wickedness of them, that they themselves will never see the adversity they inflict on others. But no matter how powerful they are, they can not escape their end, for it is YHVH who is King forever and ever, and the scepter of His kingdom is a scepter of righteousness, not injustice.
