Day 195 - 1 Kings 10 - 11 & Psalm 9

 Julie

Soloman sins and loses his kingdom. Although, God does make sure that the line of David stays intact so he gives one kingdom to the son of Solomon and the rest he gives to others. It seems that no matter what happens no one can escape sin.

I had quite a few lines marked in this Psalm, I am assuming from the previous read. Praising God for his righteousness and goodness and going out and talking to others about it seems to be the theme of this Psalm. The best way to share is telling others about the way God has worked in our lives.

I was surprised to see that Solomon chose to sin against God.  Although you are right, no one can escape it.  It also goes on to speak of the adversaries that God rose up against him and how the kingdom was divided at his death.  

I am not sure what this psalm is saying, maybe cuz I felt distracted while reading it.  At the end it says let the nations know they are only mortal.  It seems ominous.
