Ps 16 8I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right
hand, I will not be shaken. God has a value of all the things and people
of His creation. When we devalue Gods the creation we use people. The
value is protected by the pronouncement of death.A man who practices devaluing Gods creation is making deals with God. He
relate to the creation through a bribe.15 4 who despises a vile man
but honors those who fear the LORD ,who keeps his oath even when it
hurts", We swear to the covenant even in the face of personal lossThe profit from the bribe is the personal curse to the one who strikes
the deal.9 16 The LORD is known by his justice; the wicked are ensnared
by the work of their hands." The wicked embrace the curse like embracing
fire. We are never shaken in pronouncing the curse.Think about this ...it will give you insight into why people do evil to other people. It is a charm that possesses the wicked.When we are saved we are waking up to the reality that we have no hope
without Gods help. 119 I rise before dawn and cry for help; I have put
my hope in your word". We must create Gods help through pronouncing the
axioms.124 8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and
earth." Gods help is beyond the system of the world. God is accounting
the opposition by His view from the beginning of the world. The help we
need is the view that God has of us in His eternal counsel.He determined the existence of all things by speaking the law,
covenants, curses, statutes, promises and decrees. We cannot depend upon
any other explanation of the problem and the solution.94 17 Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the
silence of death. All men need help. The problem is that man cannot help
himself. 60 11Give us aid against the enemy, for the help of man is
worthless. We are born by thinking we can help ourselves.52 1 Why do you boast of evil, you mighty man? Why do you boast all day
long, you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God? This Psalm is
describing the man who uses his economic power to destroy others. 7
"Here now is the man who did not make God his strongholdbut trusted in his great wealth and grew strong by destroying
others!"The Psalmist starts off with the universal problem of total
depravity and applies it to the personalities of men in a society.
Builds his case and then he attacks the men who oppose him. Our trust isalways built on the false assumptions of what is going on the hearts of
evil men. God is pronouncing these extreme curses and blessing because
He sees the thoughts and has a realistic view of the danger they impose
in this world.God detailed view of the world that goes the smallest particle. He sees
the dna of the entire world. God has revealed His view in the outline of
His more exhaustive understanding of man. He speaks from eternity unto
eternity in the pronouncements. He has given His saints
