David wrote this Psalm as an indictment to those who do not believe in the existence of God. It is not a Psalm of Praise, but rather a Psalm revealing the true nature of the unregenerate soul. The word ‘fool’ in this context denotes a man who is morally deficient. He goes on to say that the immoral soul is corrupt, capable of no good thing.
There has and always will be men who will deny the existence of God. They are control mongers who wish to be at the helm of their own ship, relinquishing that control to no one, whether seen or unseen. Those that make these denials shout out their need of proof. They require hard cold facts that would prove the existence of this unseen God that millions have sworn their allegiance to. Visible, tangible proof is not available, nor shall it ever be, for faith does not require natural sight, but rather supernatural sight. It requires sight in the spirit. Faith is seeing things that are not as if they are. Faith is placing your trust in someone or something that cannot be experienced with your natural senses.
To fully experience God, one must let go of the rope we have been clinging to and trust that we will not fall. Sometimes it isn’t until we get to the end of that rope that we release our hold, thinking we have no other choice. God shall not fail us. Throughout history, as depicted in scripture, God has been faithful to those who have called upon His name. To those who dedicate their lives to Him, God becomes an unfailing source of all things. God knows us intimately and wishes us to know Him in like manner. It is only those who dedicate themselves to surrendering their will to God a little more each day that shall come to truly know Him. His character is revealed in His word. The recounting of real events in history reveals God’s nature. He is true to His own. He shuns those who shun Him, all the while leaving a door open for their redemption. Our Almighty Jehovah God is the supreme force in a universe of His making. To contradict the statement ‘there is no God’, it can be readily stated that “there is no one like God” for He knows all, sees all and is capable of all things. Those who devote their lives to Him and Him alone are of all men wise.
WALK WITH THE KING TODAY AND BE A BLESSING!
