A Song of Ascents.
“Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth,”
Let Israel now say—
“Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth;
Yet they have not prevailed against me.
The plowers plowed on my back; They made their furrows long.”
The Lord is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.
“Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth,”
Let Israel now say—
“Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth;
Yet they have not prevailed against me.
The plowers plowed on my back; They made their furrows long.”
The Lord is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.
Psalm 129:1-4
I know how David felt. The enemy of my soul plowed me under many times as a child. My parents’ divorce, an episode of physical abuse, violent struggles for control of my home, and drug use in my home. I felt like a failure while trying to keep everyone from knowing what was really going on at home. Yet he has not prevailed against me. The Lord has carried me through every attack even when I responded wrongly to those around me because I didn’t recognize my enemy. Jesus has cut the cords of the wicked from my life.
If you are in a tough time let me assure that Jesus is there with you. He will cut the enemy from your life. There will be a day when you can say that you have the victory. You will declare, “Yet they have not prevailed against me.” Nothing can separate you from the love of Christ. (Romans 8:31-39) Jesus gave everything for you while you were His enemy. What will He do for you now that you are in the family of God? Hold on my friend Jesus will plow the plowers.
Unbeaten,
Pastor Jason
