Memorize this Verse: (Cover the verse text and using just the first letters of each word try to recite the entire passage.)
34. W O T L A K H W A H S E T T I T L W T W A C O T S S I
In the way of his appointments and ordinances. Where may be learned the design of his providences, and of the prosperity of the wicked and their end (Psalm 73:16). And in a providential way, for the performance of his promises, in which he never fails. And patiently bear whatever he is pleased to lay upon them. Waiting for a deliverance out of every affliction, which will be in His own time. The Chaldee paraphrase “trust in the word of the Lord.”
“And keep his way”: Or, walk in the path which He commands. Do not turn from and do not allow any temptation, or any opposition, to cause you to swerve from that path.
“And he shall exalt thee to inherit the land”: That is, shall raise out of a low and uncomfortable situation of life to a more comfortable one. Or however, hereafter, to dwell in the new heavens and new earth. To reign with Christ upon his throne, and to enjoy the eternal inheritance.
“When the wicked are cut off”: (As in Psalm 37:9).
“Thou shall see it”: With joy and pleasure. Not as exulting: in the destruction of the wicked, simply considered. But as the glory of divine justice is displayed therein (see Psalm 52:5).
It may appear to the natural eye that the wicked are winning the battle, but what will they be doing when the righteous of God answer the trumpet call and go to be with our LORD? They will be left to face the wrath of God. What a horrible fate for anyone.
