“With the…”

“With the…”

Blessings folk!

The Lord had recompensed David according to his righteousness.

David continues the thought…

2 Sa 22:26-28

“With the kind You show Yourself kind,
With the blameless You show Yourself blameless;

With the pure You show Yourself pure,
And with the perverted You show Yourself astute.

“And You save an afflicted people;
But Your eyes are on the haughty whom You abase.

The Lord is kind to the kind.
The Lord will be blameless before those who are blameless.
The Lord will be pure with the pure.
The Lord knows how to deal with the perverted.
The Lord saves an afflicted people.

All this is juxtaposed to the haughty.

The eyes of the Lord are upon the haughty…

  • those exalted in their own eyes
  • those that view themselves above others

The Lord abases the haughty.

David had not been haughty.
Perfect?
Far from it.
But David sought the heart of the Lord and the Lord delivered him.

David therefore sang this song of praise to the Most High.

Rejoice in this.
The Lord will do the same for us.

Be not haughty.
