Fate of the enemies of God (A summary notes of Psa 83)


The carnal mind is enmity against God (Rom 8:7)
...whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. (James 4:4)

The fate of enemies of God is clearly stated in Psalm 83.

They will be perished, become refuse on earth, (:10), made like whirling dust, like the chaff before the wind. (: 13)  As the fire burns the woods, and as the flame sets the mountains on fire so God pursues them with His tempest, and frighten them with His storm, their faces will be filled with shame, confounded and dismayed forever. (: 14 - 17)

Practical examples in the scriptures are listed : Midian,  Sisera,  Jabin,  Oreb and Zeeb, Zebah and Zalmunna. (: 9 - 12)

Whereas God's own people are sheltered by Himself through His shed Blood upon the Cross. What a privilege!  His Name alone is the Lord and He is the Most High over all the earth.
