Psa 50:1, …, THE MIGHTY ONE, GOD THE LORD, HAS SPOKEN and called the earth From the rising of the sun to its going down.
Three names of GOD in the first verse! EL = Mighty GOD, GOD =Elohim, THE LORD = YEH-HO-VAW’! HE SPEAKS OUT OF ZION!
Psa 50:3, Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent; A fire shall devour before Him, And it shall be very tempestuous all around Him.
THE LORD, GOD HAS COME TO JUDGE THE WORLD OUT OF JERUSALEM!
Psa 50:5-6, “GATHER MY SAINTS TOGETHER TO ME, THOSE WHO HAVE MADE A COVENANT WITH ME BY SACRIFICE.” LET THE HEAVENS DECLARE HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, FOR GOD HIMSELF IS JUDGE. SELAH
Judgement starts with HIS saints first (1Peter 4:17)! Believers, who placed their trust in the LORD JESUS, shall be judged according to their works! Their motives shall be tested by fire!
Psa 50:8,12, I will not rebuke you for your sacrifices Or your burnt offerings, Which are continually before Me…. “If I were hungry, I would not tell you; For the world is Mine, and all its fullness.
THEY OFFERED SACRIFICES AS IF HE WERE HUNGRY FOR FOOD NOT BASED ON A REPENTANT HEART!
Psa 50:16-17, But to the wicked God says: “WHAT RIGHT HAVE YOU TO DECLARE MY STATUTES, OR TAKE MY COVENANT IN YOUR MOUTH, SEEING YOU HATE INSTRUCTION AND CAST MY WORDS BEHIND YOU?
The wicked refers to believers!
Psa 50:18-20, When you saw a thief, you consented with him, And have been a partaker with adulterers. You give your mouth to evil, And your tongue frames deceit. You sit and speak against your brother; …
THIS IS THE WAY OF THE WORLD, YET MANY BELIEVERS ACT THIS WAY! WE THINK BECAUSE HE KEEPS SILENT THAT WERE OK?
Psa 50:21, These things you have done, and I kept silent; YOU THOUGHT THAT I WAS ALTOGETHER LIKE YOU; But I will rebuke you, And set them in order before your eyes.
HE SEES ALL WE DO, HE ALSO SEES THE MOTIVES OF OUR HEARTS! IS IT BASED ON LOVE FOR HIM OR HONOR FOR OURSELVES? IF WE LOVE HIM, THEN WE MUST DO AS HE INSTRUCTED US TO DO!
