OT: The Book of Psalms, Psalm 125

Psalm 125:1-5

125:1-2 When we trust the Lord, we become rooted in His House. We are planted in His kingdom. Safe. Secure. Strong. We cannot be moved or displaced by fear or enemy. Our well-being and our peace become eternal. Our home in Him forever. He surrounds us, a divine and impenetrable shield on all sides. 

125:3 Wickedness will taught at the outskirts but cannot be allowed in. Our faith and trust in God blocks their entrance. Therefore our faith has reason to always be louder than our fear, louder than the enemies voice. Because the promises of God ring loud and strong and true within the protector of God's kingdom. 

125:4 God only asks us to do good. To be good. To love righteousness, and to love helping people with our righteous acts. 

125:5 The only wayward, crooked, unsafe path is the way of the wicked. Evil, unkindness, unrighteousness, corruption, iniquity. But upon the righteous children of God is peace placed and secured by God.
