To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.
Do not lift your horns against heaven; do not speak so defiantly. Psalms 75:4-5
In times of chaos, we need to remember God and His blessings. This is a hymn of praise. It thanks God for the wondrous deeds he has done for Israel. It celebrates the fact that he is the judge of all the earth. He will, in his own time, put down the wicked and lift up the faithful.
Psalm 75 also mentions a "horn". I didn't know what was meant by this symbol, so I looked it up. Most often, it's used as a symbol for physical or military strength. From the ESV commentary it says, "The horn could be a symbol of power and military strength, and thus to lift up or exalt it was to publicly assert power. God warns the ungodly not to lift up their horns (75:4), and promises that he will lift up the horn of the faithful."
Join me in reading Psalm 75 and be encouraged!
