Such is wisdom in the state of affairs particularly related to international affairs but as well for the godly individual that is rarely heeded to today. Man wants to trust in governments; their own resourcefulness; riches; or even family members to support them rather than God. In the same token the wisdom about things as worldly possessions causes many to bring about their own early demise financially because of foolish spending and putting themselves in the bondage of debt. Many try to bypass the admonition that if "you don't work you don't eat."
Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb
.
Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
Delight thyself also in the LORD; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and He shall bring it to pass.
He shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him:
VERSES 16-26
A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.
For such as be blessed of Him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of Him shall be cut off.
The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in His way.
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread
he is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
Believe and rest in His Words and they will be fulfilled in your life.
Have a Blessed Weekend
