Fierce opposition may be something in this country that we are not normally accustomed to but one has to ask why in light of 2 Timothy 3:12-17; John 15:18-21; 2 Corinthians 11:26 etc.
Perhaps I made this statement earlier in the Psalms discussion; but we need to distinguish between unconditional love and the fact that "enemies" still exist. Romans 5:10 and apparently 29 other verses show that indeed we all are enemies of God prior to our conversion; hence all unregenerate remain in that state.
There is something to be said for the O.T. times when the mindset was more "an eye for an eye"( Exodus 21:24). In terms of today; Christ demonstrated no personal condemnation for a particular individual; but He certainly spent chapters excoriating the Pharisees and others which caused multiple attempts at His life along the constant persecution.
Again as I stated in other Psalms regarding David's multiple hiding periods from Saul he showed respect for him by preserving his life multiple times when he could have ended it; and also he mourned over his death when the Lord finally made Saul reap what he sowed. When someone tries to kill you 21 times as Saul was said to do (not to mention other enemies of his); then we can understand a desire to see justice. Christ alluded to judgment with unbelief among the places that had seen mighty works such as Matthew 11:21 (the "woe to you" term was also used with the Pharisees).
Individual judgment to come or the fate of nations is not something we should gloss over. We as watchmen are responsible to sound the alarm ( Isaiah 52:8 and other verses in Jeremiah; etc). In evangelism warning of a national fate seems to be generally disregarded as opposed to warning individuals as to the wrath to come. I can't see studying how Christ preached that it can be ignored. We can study scripture and history to see how Isaiah and Jeremiah for instance were martyred for such messages.
God is your shield and he protects you night and day. I pray that he sends a good and faithful friend to you, to be a helper and
comforter with you in all your struggles. I send all demons that have been harrassing you to be bound in chains and sent to the abyss now by the authority of Jesus name. I ask the Holy Spirit to guide you and comfort you and be with you always. in Jesus name.
Why am I being curse and can't nobody see what's going on in this city of new Orleans?people are after me every day nd no body is here for me but GOD.Thank you Father in the name of JESUS.
As I read this, I feel like it's right out of the news. Sounds like antifa, black lives matter, communist democratic party, attacks on our cities. And how only God can save the United States of America. Also the corrupt politicians of secret santanic societys, Freemasons, Illuminati,skull and bones 322, night Templars,etc. Doing their best to get away with their crimes and escape Justice. They won't escape God's court date. Hell awates you enemies of God.
David was crying out to God because Saul kept making attempts on his life and sent his henchmen to kill him. David was tired of running and did not want to kill Saul. David was letting God know that he would keep trusting in Him and describing Saul and his men and wanted God to avenge him. Saul turned on David when God told Saul he was anointing David as king because Saul did not heedGod's warning
Reading this scripture and every scripture makes me feel just like I am having a closer talk and walk with God and His Only Begotten Son Jesus.I want to get to know them before I meet them.And I want to live on God Green Earth, just like I am already living in Heaven. And it makes me want to get on with my shout and tell everybody who God is and what He is all about.
A prayer of the unborn..
Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.
They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.
It is good to take comfort in these words daily. For God's Word is the Bread of nourishment for us. But too remember, though David said them, so too do they point to Christ's time here on earth. Did the soldiers of the temple come seeking is arrest at night make noise like dogs throughout the city? Yes, but Christ, though taken, beaten and killed...became The Victor! Thank God for this.
My favorite scripture is Psalms 23rd in which I read everyday to get me through these troubling times, more now than ever. I love Psalms 59, I put my faith in God not men. No one comes before the king of kings🌺
It gives me so much hope and strength. God is telling me, just as I deliver David my Son I God will also deliver you my daughter. So when the enemies are plotting against you and they at times are close in your circles , remember, that in all your ways acknowledge God and he our Heavenly Father will direct our path. He will be our protector and our loving God, trust in God. Amen.
The Word of GOD has always been a comfort to me. His Word never gets old and after 28 years of my Salvation through Christ Jesus, still becomes new; in the different seasons of my life: I am humbled by that miracle. Halleluia and Amen. All of the comments by you other believers are also such a blessing. May God continue to bless you all!
I love reading this psalms every time I read it I know that the good lord is guiding me a long the way,the enemies will not over come me in jesus name Amem.
This Psalm is just a reminder that in our lowest hour and in our weakest moments there is hope for whatever challenges we are faced with. This verse lets us know that we have the victory once we believe God 's word.
when I read the word of GOD and see how he takes good care of HIS children it gives me more and more strength to go on knowing that GOD is there to protect me from mine enemies. THANK YOU LORD for giving me a heart and mind to live for you.
This chapter gives me zeal and that power to go on prayer, not for me only but for my enemies also. For I understand that praying for those who persecute us is of great importance in protecting our selves from that persecution and helping the persecutors forsake their practices.
I love this verse because God tells us in His word that even when we are in the midst of our enemies, God is there to protect us. He's not going to let anyone harm us outside of God's realm. He's our everlasting shield of protection.

Let us preach truth in love.
v17 "Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy."
Peace and comfort is a benefit I receive only from you. Let me be content in you. Thank you Lord. Make me to be satisfied only from your hand.
Job 19:25 "For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:"
Let us all stand firm in the Words of the Lord, the time draws near for our redemption. September 25, 2021
