Psalms 75

Psalms 75THEME: A song of deliveranceThis psalm is “To the chief Musician, Altaschith, A Psalm or Song of Asaph.” Psalms 74 was a prayer of Asaph. Psalms 75 is a song of deliverance, a song of triumph that will come; therefore, it is a psalm of faith.

Psalms 75:1

Ultimately, God is going to protect His name on earth. What a wonderful, glorious truth this is which is put before us in this psalm!

Psalms 75:2

This verse should read, “For I will take hold of the set time; I will judge in uprightness.” This means that when the Lord comes it will be at a set time. When our Lord walked on earth, He took the place of self-humiliation. It was as a man on earth, that He said, “But of the day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Mat_24:36). The Lord is coming at that appointed time. You cannot rush Him. He will come at the predetermined time.

No man knows the date or the hour, although there are a few prophetic teachers across the country today who seem to have a private wire to heaven and seem to know when the Lord is going to return. But I don’tand, of course, they don’t either. The important thing to note is that there is a set time when the Lord Jesus is going to return.

Psalms 75:6

Where will help come from? Not from the east, west, or south. You will notice that no mention is made of the north, because that is the direction the enemy will come from. Only God will be able to deliver His people. Psalms 75 is a prayer of thanksgiving to God before the event even takes place! How wonderful these psalms are! I trust they are a blessing to your heart.
