Psalm 10 – Triumph over wickedness

Psalm Category: Acrostic Psalm

Today’s reading of Psalm speaks to me to evaluate my life about wickedness.

Some characteristics of wickedness:
(1) arrogance & schemer (v2)
(2) greedy & revile God (v3)
(3) No room for God (v4)
(4) Far from God’s law (v5)
(5) Self –centred thinking (v6)
(6) Speech – curses, lies, threats, evil (v7)
(7) No godly accountability (v8 & 13)

In spite of all the wickedness, the Psalmist sees, he calls on the LORD to defeat the wicked and delivers those who all under the clutches of the wicked.

There is this assurance that good triumph over evil.

As for me, it is a time to reflect over my life – in speech, thought and action.

Is God the center of my every doing?
