Psalm 138:4–5 (ESV) — 4 All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O
Lord,
for they have heard the words of your mouth,
5 and they shall sing of the ways of the Lord,
for great is the glory of the Lord.
NOTE: When the Queen
of Sheba visited Solomon, this was a partial fulfillment of this verse. It
doesn't seem very true today, nor does it seem like it was ever completely
true. Of course, Psalms is imagery and expresses the heart of David, and may
not be a direct prophecy. In this case though, it is. Revelation tells us that
every knee shall bow at the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ during his second
return. Obviously, the tribulation saints have effectively spread the word,
even though it has had little effect. But in the end, the world will recognize
how deceived it has been. We are in the midst of that deception today. We are
told how to think and what to think, and if we choose differently, we can be in
danger of breaking the law. I know that history has had many cycles of
government and philosophical ideas. So, we may just be in one of those cycle.
And while it is not necessarily the worse physically, it could be argued it is
the worse morally. Are we nearing the end of times? Some of the signs say yes.
The next important sign is an attack by the area of Persia (Iran) and the area
of Russia against Israel. Maybe Syria becomes involved. What seems unlikely is
looking more and more possible. Forgive us Lord for our sin. Open our eyes to
see what David understood.
