“The LORD trieth the righteous: But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth. For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; His countenance doth behold the upright.”
Psalm 11:5, 7 KJV
As David worshipped, “Yahweh tests both the righteous and the wicked. God’s very soul detests lovers of violence. But remember this: Yahweh is the Righteous One who loves justice, and every godly one will gaze upon his face!” David understood the trials of the righteous. In the new covenant it is important for the righteous to encounter trials. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold-though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. The trials of the righteous happen because God made Jesus Who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. What a great and glorious God. Amen!
