Psalm 97:9-12 ” For You, O Lord, are the Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods. Let those who love the Lord hate evil, for He guards the lives of His faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked. Light is shed upon the righteous and joy on the upright in heart. Rejoice in the Lord, you who are righteous, and praise His holy name.”

As we wind down the last few days of 2021, I know for many this has not been an easy year. But hopefully we can look at this Psalm and gain comfort and hope. Our God is the only true and supreme God, and He should be greatly exalted as such…regardless of what kind of situation we find ourselves in. We are to desire and delight in doing what is right and not choose evil simply because it’s the most attractive option…for God watches over and preserves the upright and rescues them from harm and the oppression of the ungodly. For with obedience to God comes life and salvation, wisdom and understanding. So give thanks and rejoice in the Lord today for what he has done, is doing, and will be doing in your life ahead.
