The basic message of King David's Psalms
David's Psalms are mostly mournful and reflect the immense fear and anxiety he had to walk through for years as he fled from the constant persecution of King Saul, possessed by an evil spirit, which tried to murder him.
Their message is also intended for us Christians of the end of time, who live in a time where godlessness is rampant and Christianity is being abandoned in all Western countries in a surprisingly fast time frame. We are called to be the light of the world and the salt of the earth. In this bad time, it requires courage from us and the readiness of many Christians around the world to also be martyrs, if Adonai Yeshua so decrees.
My own experience with David's psalm
My first experience happened in the spring of 1973 when I was living in Jesus commune with six other Christian youths in the center of Stad. It was time to look for a new apartment, because we had received permission to live in the apartment for 9 months. I decided to leave the matter with prayers to Adonai Yeshua and not to look for an apartment myself at all. For so long it was easy for me to believe when there was still a month until the moving day.
I still hadn't got an apartment, even though I had to move out the next day! I had a strange dream that night. According to it, I was standing on a strong bedrock with my arms stretched up towards the clear blue sky. Suddenly, I saw something white, like a cloth, which rotated at high speed and it descended down from the sky right in front of me! It was like a big white sheet. On the sheet it was written in black and very big letters and numbers:
Psalm 6:7-9 (Read the text of the psalm in the attached picture)
I was very tired next morning, when I sat down to drink morning tea. Then I remembered having a special dream and vision that reference to Psalm 6:7-9. I couldn't memorize its contents, so I read it in the Bible and was very surprised! I immediately understood that the adversaries referred to in the psalm are spirits of darkness and not people!
Two days before, I already participated in the first EV-73 Evangelical Conference (1973) in Finland's history, where I was an observer member. As far as I remember, more than 160 different Christian communities and congregations, as well as us non-church members, participated in it as I did.
In the morning, I packed all my belongings into two bags, one of which was a suitcase. I took them to the luggage storage at the railway station and visited the Christian housing agency, where I got an apartment for that day. I paid a month's rent and went to Dipoli (Meeting house) in Espoo town for the EV Conference.
I 'mistakenly' went to the wrong meeting room and while standing in the lobby under the loudspeaker, I heard the announcement: "A young man is getting an apartment today. Contact the office immediately!" I felt the vibrations of the Holy Spirit throughout my body and I heard Him say, "That apartment was reserved for you."
I couldn't take it anymore because I had already signed a lease for another apartment and already paid the rent for it. If I had waited just 4 more hours, I would have really received the apartment that Adonai Yeshua reserved for me. It was my first defeat on the path of faith and I have tried to learn from it. It is just as it is written in the book of the prophet: Hab. 2:3
>>For the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it hasteth toward the end, and shall not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not delay.<<
I have learned that the most difficult thing is to wait for an answer to prayer, because it requires genuine faith! Let's compete and get stronger day by day in faith!
The prompt I received at night
I had been depressed for a few days because the bronchial asthma had taken away my strength and the malignant rhinitis was bothering me and I had to constantly cough up mucus. An old plastic filling also came off one of my teeth on Wednesday. Huh, that too. Just a month ago, a big piece of the plastic filling of a big old back tooth came off and I just got it repaired. Fortunately, I got a cancellation appointment from Turku Tooth Care for this new shedding already for next Monday morning! Many thanks to Adonai Yeshua for that!
I saw a dream in which I advised a depressed man to listen to spiritual songs and especially praise psalms, because they contain a message that strengthens the innermost part of a person. I took him to a Christian meeting and we sang together some hymns. I did exactly the same today at home and was filled with the Holy Spirit! That's why I got this topic for this Sabath.
