Overcome the Wicked One, 1 Jn 2:12-14
John said to the young men in 1 Jn that ye have overcome the wicked one [1 Jn 2:13-14]. And this is true of born again believers [1 Jn 5:12-13]. Now once you have overcome the wicked one through salvation he will still try to take advantage of you through his wiles [Eph 6:10-18]. Thus, […]
The Lord Hath Heard, Ps 6:1-10 – Jul 15, 2026
The Lord Hath Heard In Psalm 6, David is being “attacked” by his enemies. They have worn him down so much that he is weak and vexed, v.2, weary, v.6, and grieved, v.7. He’s been groaning and crying profusely, v.6. Death and the grave have become present realities, v.5, as it appears he has no […]
