Psalm 76:11–12

WRATH BRINGS PRAISE

Psalm 76:11-12. “Vow, and pay unto the Lord your God: Let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared. He hath cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.”

WRATH BRINGS PRAISE. -The end has not come yet, but I know the future God will be praised over all. Kings of the world who to men were so great Before the Great King will fall.

From the far ends of the earth, they spewed out their anger Righteousness and justice were not in their thoughts. The great plans they had and the self-important things they did All will be brought to eventual naught.

Even their wrath against God and His truth Will cause praise to be brought to Him. He who they said did not even exist Will be praised by their wrath against Him.

They were strong in their eyes with weapons in hand The opposition against them often trembled. Now that the tide has turned, it is time for them to bow All the kings of the earth before Him assembled.

Their boldness is now fear, loud words now mere whispers As the Lord and His glory is shown. Their wrath against God is the background of black Bringing more glory to Him on the throne.

“I can see it already, Holy God: there are people who, in their anger, resist all thoughts of Thee. Yet even as their opposition is voiced, others looking on are made aware of Thee and, in their inner person, consider the fact that “God is, and is a rewarder of them that fear Him. It brings praise from me, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
