Psalm 83:1-18  (ESV)

Daily Bread

Key Verse: 83:18

First, enemies plot against Israel (1-12). The psalmist cries out for God not to be silent. He mentions many of Israel's ancient enemies as if they are God's enemies (2). They conspire to destroy Israel as a nation (3, 4). He appeals to God to do to them as he did to Midian, Sisera and Jabin (9). He leaves nothing to the imagination; he asks God to make them like dung on the ground (10).

Second, let them know you alone are the Most High over all the earth (13-18). His prayer continues as he asks for God to make them like tumbleweed, rootless and dry. God's enemies will eventually be ashamed forever and they will perish forever (17). The psalmist has a clear prayer topic that the name of the LORD may be exalted alone as the Most High over all the earth (18).

Prayer: Prayer: Lord, you are the Most High over all the earth. May all the nations know that you are Sovereign.

One Word: God is the Most High over all the earth
