Psalm 60
3 Lessons here:
God will do whatever he pleases.
God owns everything.
Call on the Lord to be your strength.
God will do all that he pleases. He has no responsibility to you. Because you believe in God and you follow the 3 basic steps of making him on your side means nothing whatsoever. God had mercy when he wishes. He pours out wrath when he pleases. The Lord is not sadistic. He is good, but still good and bad happens to every person whether they are his child or not. The purpose is His to have and he has a purpose for all that he does.
God owns everything. He is the creator. There is no force that can stop God from anything. He needs nothing. All that you have is his, therefore treat it all like it belongs to God.
Ask him for help. In order to glorify the Lord we must draw all strength from him. How we survive the trials in life is through Him. How we handle abundance and poverty is found in getting strength from God and nothing else.

Psalm 59
BibleGateway.com Psalm 59
The Lord our God alone can protect us. God alone protects us from our enemies. The fact is I can do nothing good apart from God. In Christ I am empowered to reflect the glory of God.
To be the enemy of God is a frightful thing but we are all in that position after the fall. We are rebels by birth. We will always chose to fight the ways of God. The wrath will be horrible and no matter what you think of Christians all people will wish they could be on God's side once it happens. Hell is real and will last forever. God's justice is infinite and he will not decide to let everyone into his presence after a certain period of time. The punishment for profaning our Creator will last forever. The great hope is he has let us reconcile! Seek Christ and you will not be turned away.
