The Way of Evil Will Be No More

Day 102: Psalms 37:34-36

            Psalm 37:34 Wait on the LORD, And keep His way, And He shall exalt you to inherit the land; When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it. 35I have seen the wicked in great power, And spreading himself like a native green tree. 36Yet he passed away, and behold, he was no more; Indeed I sought him, but he could not be found.

            In the scheme of eternity, the wickedness and evil of men is like so much dust and chaff that will be blown away. Lord, help us trust You during our times of stress and through all the attacks of the enemy. Lord, help us to keep doing the right thing as we trust in You. Help us trust and obey and see the fulfillment of Your promises to us.

            Help us spend our time following Christ and showing forth His righteousness. Do not let the sin, the corruption, the hate of men teach us to hate, but help us keep our eyes and lives fixed on Jesus. One day You have promised that we would see the end of the wicked. Though they may be in great power for a season, their end will come. In their wickedness, they have stretched far and wide, but You will deal with their lies and their attacks on Your servants.

            There will be an end to their evil. Their lies will be exposed. The places that they thrived will be empty. Acts 1:20 “For it is written in the book of Psalms: ‘Let his dwelling place be desolate, And let no one live in it;’ and, ‘Let another take his office.’ As Judas was removed so in their time and in Your way those who have refused the grace of God will fall. The end will come for those who have attacked and wounded Your children. And Your children will once more prosper in Your hand.

            Even so, Come quickly, Lord Jesus!

Jesus Christ brought me to Himself at a very early age. I began seeking the Lord and writing prayer journals in my early teens and have continued to grow in my knowledge and experience of prayer. I am still learning and growing in my prayer life and long to help others grow in their prayer lives as well. I am not an expert, but a practitioner who needs God to continue to teach me to pray. Prayer is both simple, yet also profound. It is deep and draws us into the depth of God, but it is also so easy and wondrous that we can cry out to God with "Abba, Father" prayers because of the work of Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit. Prayer comes from God's heart, works in our hearts, and teaches us to go back to seek God's heart!
