Psalm 37:33


Copyright  2015 J. Neely
Psalm 37:33

33 The LORD [Y@hovah] will not leave [`azab] him in his hand [yad], nor condemn [rasha`] him when he is judged [shaphat].   KJV-Interlinear

33 The LORD will not abandon him to his power or let him be condemned when he is brought to trial.   ESV

A common theme that is presented in the Psalms, or in the Bible in general, is that faithful believers are always under threat from the wicked.

The world in general lacks fair play and justice for virtually everyone, but more particularly for Christians.

This verse does not guarantee absolute protection for the believer in this world. This is the Devils world, and as such bad things are going to happen to everyone, regardless of whether the person is good or bad, Christian or non-Christian.

What this verse does guarantee, is that if you are a believer in Jesus Christ, which means you are a Christian, then nothing in this world can take you away from God and the eternal life that you possess.

This is eternal security.

Once you belong to God, then you are under his protection forever.

God will not abandon you, or forsake you, or allow anything in this world to take you away from His care.

The power of the wicked, the power of the world, the power of wickedness and evil, are all one and the same. And they hold no good thing for anyone, especially not for believers in Christ.

The world is presently under the rulership of Satan, and the only thing he wants is to defeat Christ. So Satan and evil will do everything in their power to disrupt, to destroy, to make life difficult for Christians.

So regardless of the problems that you face in this life, and we will all face problems, the heartaches that we suffer now, will only be temporary.

Jesus Christ controls history. And our lives are in his hands, such that any and all trials and tribulations and difficulties that we face in this world, will fail.

Our objective for life in this world, is our preparation for the next life in eternity. And part of our preparation is to experience problems, so that we can advance in our spiritual life to maturity.

Whatever problems you might face in life, remember one important thing. They will all come to an end. And Christ in his grace and power and authority, will bring you into eternity without a blemish or mark on you.





These studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever. 

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever.  To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment.  No one else can study for you.  You have to do that yourself.
