Psalm 94

LORD, how long will the wicked –
how long will the wicked celebrate?

There is, and will be, a season in which the “wicked celebrate.” Injustice will be the normal course of business and government. Innocents will be harmed. Those who are vulnerable, killed, murdered by those in power.

And those who look on with horror will wonder: how long?

Doesn’t God see this? Will He not do something?

“The Lord knows . . . “(v. 11). He isn’t missing what is happening, He will execute His righteous judgment.

That is little consolation for people who are harmed by the wicked today. But, there is a place of refuge.

The Lord is my refuge.

My God is the rock of my protection.

What we see today, experience in this life, is temporary and ultimately inconsequential.

The Lord reigns.

He rules.

He will vindicate.

Come, Lord Jesus!
