December 28, 2025, Psalm 129:1-8

129 “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth”—
    let Israel now say—
² “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth,
    yet they have not prevailed against me.
³ The plowers plowed upon my back;
    they made long their furrows.”
⁴ The Lord is righteous;
    he has cut the cords of the wicked.
⁵ May all who hate Zion
    be put to shame and turned backward!
⁶ Let them be like the grass on the housetops,
    which withers before it grows up,
⁷ with which the reaper does not fill his hand
    nor the binder of sheaves his arms,
⁸ nor do those who pass by say,
    “The blessing of the Lord be upon you!
    We bless you in the name of the Lord!”

How sensitive are you to the attacks by people against the work of God and His people? I often wonder what the persecution of Christians in America will look like as we come closer to the return of Jesus? Pray for God to make believers strong and resilient.
