Out of the Lions Mouth

“Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.” Psalm 35:8

It is much better to follow the LORD than to be a rebellious fool.  The fool will fall into his own trap but the believer will be held in the arms of the LORD. “The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.” (Deuteronomy 33:27) “Let destruction come upon him at unawares”

Only the fool thinks he can hid his evil ways from the LORD.  You can be sure his sin will find him out. (Numbers 32:23) Laying a trap for the LORD’s elect is like putting your hand in the lions’s mouth. “let his net that he hath hid catch himself”

Destruction waits for the fool but peace is the future the righteous. The ignorance of the fool brings swift destruction even while he is in the midst his tirade. ( 2 Peter 2:1) “into that very destruction let him fall.”

The fool will fall 

Into the trap he set.

This is the promise of GOD,

And not a threat.

Christ is the champion, 

Over sin.

To the foolish man,

You’ll never win.

The only hope 

For one and all.

Give your heart to JESUS,

And miss your fall.

Take your hand out of the Lion’s mouth!

“The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.” Psalm 147:6

“The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.” Psalm 14:1
