Psalms 9:8-10

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 9:8-10. And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee:

The basis of faith is knowledge, and there is no knowledge like that which comes from experience. If you know the name of God as Jehovah, - the self-existent and ever-living God, - you will have good reason for trusting him; and then, if you know his many precious names, - such as Jehovah-Tsidkenu, the Lord our Righteousness, Jehovah-Nissi, the Lord my banner; Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord will provide, Jehovah-Shalom, the peace-giving God, and Jehovah-Shammah, the God who is there where his people are - yea, if any one name of God be fully understood by you, you will put your trust in him.
