Psalm 9:15-16

15   Into the hole that they dug the nations fell.  They caught their own feet in the net that they hid.

16   You will recognise the LORD by his justice.  The enemies of God will catch themselves in their own nets.

The word of God is Holy and has many different layers of meaning. We can see in these scriptures the people praising God for what He as done for them, and thanksgiving for the defeat of their enemies, so why does it seem like the bible was written yesterday? Why do many of its themes seem true in our own hearts? Because the times may be different but the basic reasons for living and why we struggle to live that life is the same as when these words were written thousands of years ago.

We know that the old saying 'nothing is new under the sun' has some merit. We believe that we are more advanced and more knowledgable about life and the universe than the people who lived in the past, but no one is exempt from the effects of a fallen human nature,and no one is exempt for human suffering. In these scriptures, it tells of some nationswho plotted against the kingdom of israel. They wanted to destroy the land and itspeople, but it seems that they failed.

They were destroyed by their own efforts and plans. They found out that the people of Israelhad a God in heaven who loved them, and that He would protect them from their enemies. They were destroyed by their own arrogance and pride. The same has happened time and time again, for the nation of israel and for the people of God. God's enemies have always believed thatt hey could destroy what God has created.

It has been thousands of years, countless wars in heaven and on earth, nations rise and fall,people who lived long lives in their own strength only to lose their eternal life in death separated froma loving God that would have given them the strength to live in His presence forever and ever...throughout it all, God has always saved a remnant for Himself. If you are a citizen of the Kingdom of God, He will save you from everything that is about to happen - you will praise Him when your family is safe, or you will go to be with Him to live in His presence forevermore, no more pain, no more suffering, just everlasting gratitude with peace, love and joy....

The world is about to see what God will do for the people that He loves - the nations all plot to destroy the land of Israel, God's chosen land. The people of Israel will know who saved them. He will protect His people. He will give His heart and mind to the ones who believe in His Son, Jesus Christ. He will give us the power to survive and thrive in these last days. He will give us the power to give our testimony to the world and the world will respond...

This is warning to the people who believe that they can do better than what the Lord of Hosts has provided for the people of earth. They want to destroy His people and His name. They want to get rid of the followers of Jesus and they want to forget HIS NAME. They plot to destroy us all, but in the end they will find that they will slip and fall into the pit of their own making. They will be confused, scared, and terrified of the coming wrath of the Lord of Hosts...He will not be mocked or be destroyed, and the earth and its people will praise His name forevermore.....
