A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold is as pictures of silver.(Prov.25:11) It is so important to speak the right words to people at the right time to produce the right results. When you think of apples of gold in pictures of silver, then you are thinking of wealth and excellence. When we speak wisdom into the lives of others we are making them wealthy. Therefore we must seek God for He is the source of all wisdom and He will give us just the right words needed at the right time.

#Judge me, O God and plead my cause against an ungodly nation; O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man. For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill and to thy tabernacles. Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea upon the harp will I praise thee, O my God. Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise Him, who is the health of my countenance and my God. Psalm 43:1-5
David praises God with his harp and comes out of a deep state of depression. We learn to hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him. Never give in to depression but praise God in the midst of the storms of life.
#O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan and of the Hermonites from the hill Mizar. Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. Yet the LORD will command His lovingkindness in the daytime and in the night His song shall be with me and my prayer unto the God of my life. I will say unto God my rock, why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me: while they say daily unto me where is thy God? Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise Him, who is the health of my countenance and my God. Psalm 42:6-11
#Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble. The LORD will preserve him and keep him alive and he shall be blessed upon the earth and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies. The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt makes all his bed in his sickness. I said LORD, be merciful unto me heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee. Mine enemies speak evil of me, when shall he die and his name perish? And if he comes to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it. Psalm 41:1-6
Thank Jehovah God that He considers the poor and will deliver him in times of trouble. Yes the Lord will keep him alive and not deliver him into the hand of his enemies. Praise Him today.
#Withhold not thy, tender mercies from me, O LORD; let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me. For innumerable evils have compassed me about: my iniquities have taken hold upon me so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me. Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me. Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil. Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that says unto me Aha, aha. Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, the LORD be magnified. For I am poor and needy: yet the LORD thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer make no tarrying O my God. Psalm 40:11-17
#Then said I, Lo, I come: In the volume of the book it is written of me, I delight to do thy will O my God yea thy law is within my heart. I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: Lo, I have not refrained my lips. O LORD thou knowest. I have not hidden thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation. Psalms 40:7-10
Jehovah God is to be praised and magnified in the great congregation. The Lord Jesus said I delight to do thy will O my God yea your law is within my heart. I have preached righteousness in the great congregation. Jesus fulfilled all the righteous requirements of the law.
#I waited patiently for the LORD and He inclined unto me and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay and set my feet upon a rock and established my goings. And He had put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it and fear and shall trust in the LORD. Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies. Many O LORD my God are thy wonderful works which thou hast done and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them they are more than can be numbered. Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened; burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required. Psalm 40:1-6
David waited patiently for Jehovah and He inclined unto him and heard his cry. We can have the same response from the Lord. Many O Jehovah is thy wonderful works which thou hast done toward us-ward and thy thought they cannot be numbered. O praise Him today for He alone is worthy of all our praises.
#And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee. Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish. I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it. Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand. When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah. Hear my prayer, O LORD and give ear unto my cry: hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee and a sojourner as all my fathers were. O spare me, that I may recover strength before I go hence and be no more. Psalm 39:7-13
#I said I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me. I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good and my sorrow was stirred. My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue, LORD, make me to know mine end and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. Behold, thou hast made my days as a handbreadth and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah. Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches and knoweth not who shall gather them. Psalm 39:1-6
The Psalmist is concerned about the value of life and how fleeting it is. Behold thou hast made my days as a handbreadth and mine age is as nothing before thee: every man at his best state is vanity. Selah. He heapeth up riches and knoweth not who shall gather them. Help me to know my end and how frail I am. Let me keep my tongue from evil in the presence of the wicked. For thou art, my God and I will trust in thee at all times.
