Psalm 60
Concise Complete
David prays for the deliverance of Israel from their enemies. (1-5) He
entreats God to carry on and complete their victories. (6-12)
Verses 1-5 David
owns God's displeasure to be the cause of all the hardships he had undergone.
And when God is turning his hand in our favour, it is good to remember our
former troubles. In God's displeasure their troubles began, therefore in his
favour their prosperity must begin. Those breaches and divisions which the folly
and corruption of man make, nothing but the wisdom and grace of God can repair,
by pouring out a spirit of love and peace, by which only a kingdom is saved from
ruin. The anger of God against sin, is the only cause of all misery, private or
public, that has been, is, or shall be. In all these cases there is no remedy,
but by returning to the Lord with repentance, faith, and prayer; beseeching him
to return to us. Christ, the Son of David, is given for a banner to those that
fear God; in him they are gathered together in one, and take courage. In his
name and strength they wage war with the powers of darkness.
Verses 6-12 If
Christ be ours, all things, one way or another, shall be for our eternal good.
The man who is a new creature in Christ, may rejoice in all the precious
promises God has spoken in his holiness. His present privileges, and the
sanctifying influences of the Spirit, are sure earnests of heavenly glory. David
rejoices in conquering the neighbouring nations, which had been enemies to
Israel. The Israel of God are through Christ more than conquerors. Though
sometimes they think that the Lord has cast them off, yet he will bring them
into the strong city at last. Faith in the promise will assure us that it is our
Father's good pleasure to give us the kingdom: But we are not yet made complete
conquerors, and no true believer will abuse these truths to indulge sloth, or
vain confidence. Hope in God is the best principle of true courage, for what
need those fear who have God on their side? All our victories are from him, and
while those who willingly submit to our anointed King shall share his glories,
all his foes shall be put under his feet.
