Psalm 140:1 — 2, “Rescue me, O LORD, from evil men. Protect me from men of violence, who devise evil in their hearts and stir up war all day long.” Near the end of Psalm 139 David asks why God doesn’t simply destroy His enemies. Then David remembers that he has sinned as well and asks to be guided in the way of everlasting and in this psalm he asks for protection.

Thought for Today: Shabbat February 22

Do not let any circumstances intimidate you! The more challenging your day, the more of YHVH’s power He will place at your disposal. You may think that YHVH empower you equally each day, but this is not so. Your tendency upon wakening is to assess the difficulties ahead of you, measuring them against your average strength. This is an exercise in unreality. YHVH knows what each of your days will contain, and He empower you accordingly. The degree to which He strengthen you on a given day, is based mainly on two variables: 1) the difficulty of your circumstances and 2) your willingness to depend on Him for help. Try to view challenging days as opportunities to receive more of His power than usual. Look to Him for all that you need and wait to see what He will and can do.

*Would you be pleased to hear my new song?*
*Warning: it gets a little bit heavy for the main part.*

O Yah, our Lord, how Majestic Your Name
By Garth Grenache
and his Uncanny Valley Orchestra
2025:2:22

[Chorus]
O Yah, our Lord, how majestic Your name
In all the earth, Your glory proclaimed
From infants' lips, Your strength is made known
Your enemies silenced before Your throne

[Verse 1]
When I look up at the night sky so vast
The moon and stars, by Your fingers cast
What is mankind that You think of us?
Yet You've crowned us with glory and trust

[Chorus]
O Yah, our Lord, how majestic Your name
In all the earth, Your glory proclaimed
From infants' lips, Your strength is made known
Your enemies silenced before Your throne

[Verse 2]
The fool says there is no God above
All have turned away from Your love
But You look down from heaven on high
Seeking those who on You rely

[Chorus]
O Yah, our Lord, how majestic Your name
In all the earth, Your glory proclaimed
From infants' lips, Your strength is made known
Your enemies silenced before Your throne

"By fire and by his sword will Yahweh judge all flesh:
and the slain of Yahweh shall be many."

Is 66
