IN HIS ARROGANCE THE WICKED MAN HUNTS / PSALMS 10:2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Psalms 10:2

The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

IN HIS ARROGANCE THE WICKED MAN HUNTS / PSALMS 10:2

This psalmist grieves over the pride and success of cruel and wicked people (Psalms 10:3-11).

  1. He prays that God will overthrow the wicked, help the helpless and reign as king forever in order that sin and terror be removed from the earth (Psalms 10:12-18). 
  2. While Christ’s followers must be especially concerned that wicked people turn to God, they must also understand that sin and cruelty will never be completely crushed, nor will truth and justice fully prevail, until Christ returns to destroy all evil (Revelation 19:11 -20:10). Until then, their prayer must be that God will soon abolish evil, that Christ will be crowned King forever and that sin and sorrow will cease (Revelation 19 – 22).

DO YOU STAND FAR OFF? / PSALMS 10:1-18

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Psalms 10:1-18

Why standest thou afar off, O Lord? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble? 2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. 3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth. 4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts. 5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them. 6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity. 7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity. 8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor. 9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net. 10 He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones. 11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it. 12 Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble. 13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it. 14 Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless. 15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none. 16 The Lord is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. 17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear: 18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.

DO YOU STAND FAR OFF? / PSALMS 10:1-18

This prayer is a cry to understand why God delays His justice (the cry of those killed for their faith in Christ in Revelation 6:9; Revelation 6:10) and allows wicked people to succeed. Our present age seems to be filled with injustice and all sorts of evil, and God often seems to “stand far off,” letting the ungodly go their own way without being punished. While God’s people should continue to pray that He will stop evil and suffering, they can rest assured that a day of justice and judgment is coming. Until then, the Lord will lift up those who trust Him (Psalms 10:17-18).

THIS IS THE FINGER OF GOD / EXODUS 8:18-19

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 8:18-19

And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast. 19 Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This is the finger of God: and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had said.

THIS IS THE FINGER OF GOD / EXODUS 8:18-19

Egyptian magicians were admitting that God’s power was far superior to theirs.

FROGS / EXODUS 8:2

(KJV) Exodus 8:2

And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:

FROGS / EXODUS 8:2

In ancient Egypt, frogs represented gods and were considered sacred. Through this plague, God attacked Egypt’s false beliefs by showing that His power was far superior to all other supernatural powers.

AN EAGLE THAT WAS FLYING / REVELATION 8:13

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 8:13

And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!

AN EAGLE THAT WAS FLYING / REVELATION 8:13

The eagle’s repetitive emphasis of “woe” is to warn that the next three trumpet judgments will be much more devastating than the preceding ones. The fifth and sixth judgments will involve horrible demonic forces (Revelation 9) as Satan’s fury is also unleashed on humankind.

A THIRD / REVELATION 8:12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 8:12

And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.

A THIRD / REVELATION 8:12

In all cases where “a third” is mentioned (16 times in Revelation 8:7-12; 9:15, 18; 12:4; 14:9), it is not necessarily meant to portray an exact third, for in some cases this would total more than a whole. Instead, this fraction suggests that rather than complete devastation, God has shown restraint in not yet destroying the whole. In other words, these punishments announced by the trumpet are not yet final or complete.

WORMWOOD / REVELATION 8:10-11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 8:10-11

 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; 11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

WORMWOOD / REVELATION 8:10-11

“Wormwood” is a bitter plant, representing God’s judgment and human sorrow (Deuteronomy 29:18; Proverbs 5:4; Jeremiah 9:15; Amos 5:7).

HAIL AND FIRE MIXED WITH BLOOD / REVELATION 8:7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV (Revelation 8:7

The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

HAIL AND FIRE MIXED WITH BLOOD / REVELATION 8:7

The first four trumpet judgments begin. Like the seals, the first four trumpets are grouped together and will be followed by two that are distinct, and then by a seventh, which will announce the final series of seven (Revelation 11:15; 15:1).  The mention of blood is reminiscent of Joel’s prophecy (Joel 2:31; Acts 2:19). The hail and fire are like the seventh plague God brought on Egypt through Moses (Exodus 19:13-35), only this trumpet judgment is far more serious. 

  1. One-third of the earth’s vegetation is destroyed by fire and hail; one-third of the sea and rivers are polluted; the visible heavens, sun, moon and stars are darkened for a third part of both day and night (Revelation 8:7-13).
  2. The judgments affect humans also, far many are killed (Revelation 8:11). The judgment is limited to one-third of the world because the purpose of the judgment is, in part, to warn people and turn them to God (Revelation 9:20-21).

PRAYERS OF ALL THE SAINTS / REVELATION 8:3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 8:3

And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

PRAYERS OF ALL THE SAINTS / REVELATION 8:3

The repeated mentioning of the prayers of the saints (God’s “holy ones”; Revelation 5:8; Revelation 8:3-4) indicates that the prayers of God’s people are extremely important in enacting God’s purposes and plan for the destruction of evil and the establishment of true justice and righteousness on the earth (Revelation 5:8). Some interpreters consider the silence in heaven at the opening of the seventh seal as a time of God giving priority to the prayers of His people. These prayers are about to have a direct effect on what happens on the earth (Revelation 8:5).

  1. John mentions the prayers of all the saints, which seems to indicate that the prayers of those enduring the tribulation on earth are joined by the intercession (prayer for others’ needs and situations) of those in heaven (Revelation 6:9; Revelation 6:10; Revelation 6:11). The saints in heaven are vitally concerned about the events on earth. This passage may also imply the prayers of God’s people of all time who have prayed for His purposes and justice to be carried out. 
  2. Note that God, in some sense, stores up our prayers. Although the Lord may not answer all our prayers immediately, He does not throw them aside but keeps them for fulfillment at the proper time. 
  3. If God answers His people’s prayers for His justice (Revelation 6:10), how much more will He answer our prayers for His mercy to be revealed to those who do not yet know Christ. He desires, above all ese, that they would receive His forgiveness and entrust their lives to Him so that they too can escape the judgment to come. In fact, He is patiently waiting even now, allowing more time for people to turn to Him (2 Peter 3:9). Just as the prayers of God’s people will have a direct effect regarding end-time judgments, they also have a direct effect on those for whom we pray to be saved before those times arrive.

TRUMPETS / REVELATION 8:2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 8:2

And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.

TRUMPETS / REVELATION 8:2

These trumpets are probably like the straight silver trumpets used in the Old Testament tabernacle (Numbers 10:2) and later in the temple (2 Chronicles 5:12). Trumpets were a sign of kingly authority and God’s activity. Trumpets served to announce important events, to give signals in times of war (Numbers 10:1-10; 31:6; Hosea 5:8) and to sound an alarm (Joel 2:1). The seven trumpets announce a series of end-time plagues more severe than what was revealed by the previous breaking of the seals, but not as devastating as what will take place when the bowls of God’s judgment are poured out (Revelation 16).
