    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Sunday, July 21

    [/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Do arise, O Jehovah! Save me, O my God! For you will have to[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]strike all my enemies on the jaw.[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] The teeth of wicked ones you will[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] have to break.—Ps. 3:7.[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]
    Faced with Absalom’s treachery
    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] and the disloyalty of so many[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] others, David sings the above.[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]
    David does not have a vindictive
    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] spirit. If his enemies were to be[/FONT] ‘[FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]struck on the jaw,’ God would[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]do it. King David has written[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] a personal copy of the Law and[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] knows that in it Jehovah declares:[/FONT]

    “[FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Vengeance is mine, and retribution.†(Deut. 17:14, 15, 18; 32:35)[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]
    It is also up to God to ‘break the
    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] teeth of the wicked ones.’ Breaking[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] their teeth means rendering[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]them powerless to do harm. Jehovah[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] knows who the wicked are[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] because

    [/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]“he sees what the heart is.†(1 Sam. 16:7) [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]

    How grateful we
    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] are that God gives us faith and[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] strength to stand firm against the[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]chief wicked one, Satan, who will[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] soon be abyssed like a roaring but[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]toothless lion fit only for destruction! [/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]— 1 Pet. 5:8, 9; Rev. 20:1, 2, 7- 10. [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]
