Daily Devotion in Psalm 12

Artwork from a 1611 KJV

Daily Nugget:
Many today see and hear the similar problem David bemoaned of in Psalm 12. Then and now, it has been more challenging to find godly people. So many purpose or claim to live the wy God commands, but they fail (vs. 1) from being and doing as He has instructed.talk

For many, their fail from living the way their Creator planned is due to the damage done by their tongues. Their concern and speech are about things that are not fruitful and have little moral value (vanity — vs. 2). They deceitfully flatterr to win those to their fruitless ways. Their true, hidden purpose is to benefit themselves only.

Defiantly,they speak of what they want with little regard to what their speech will do to others. Their deceiful speech often hurts those involved in their sin (vs. 5).

As above the laws they think they are, the Lord will deal with those ungodly, deceiving people (vs. 3). God has promised He would, and what He says will come to pass (vs. 6).

God's promises have been tested through the ages (vs. 6). His promises will always be kept (vs. 7). Deceptiveness and flowery speech may fool many, but they cannot fool God.

Words to Understand:
Sheminith: many believe it is an eight-string instrument
Vanity: useless, valueless, not lasting

Today’s Reading:
Psalm 12
1 To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
 2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
 3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:
 4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
 5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
 6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
 8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
