40. "ForThouhastglrdedmswIlhstrenirtb
to bsttle. Them that rose up against me
bast Thon subdued under mo," Tbo whole
of this chapter Is repented In the book o!
Tsalms as number It, the Holy Spirit thus
calling snoclal attention to this portion of
His writings through David. In chapter
xxlll., 1-3, it Is written that whatever tho
sweet psalmist of Israel spnko It wos tho
spirit ot tho Lord speaking by him. It is
well (or s when we reoognlr.o the wholo
Itlble as written by tho Spirit of Rod for our
benefit. Verso 1 of this chapter snvs that
IMvId spake these words unto thn Lord When
delivered from Saul nnd all his enemies. In
this first verso of our lesson and throughout
the psnlm he acknowledges tlmt Ood bad
dorn everything for him.
41. "Thou bait also. given mo tho necks
of mine enemies, tlmt I might destroy them
that hato me." Thero are nmnv things In
tho rnlms which tho church cannot appro
prlatc or apply to herself. It Is not for us to
hnvo the necks of enr enemies or ilm,u
those that hnte ns. Them things are peculiar
to Israel nnd to tho King of Israel, tho Son
of David, when He shall come in His glory
to destroy Israel's enemies nnd establish the
kingdom. Our mission as members ot tho
body of chrit is to suffer nicoklv even for
well doingi to be cast out, bnted'niid killed
lor liis sake, nnd yet to take it nil patiently.
42. "They look.-d, but then) was none to
Mve, even, unt l the Lord, but He answered
them not." As It Is written In Jlie. lil.. i,
"Then shnll they cry unto the Lord, I tit Ho
will not hear them, ns tbcv have behaved
themselves 111 in their do'ing.s." And In
I'rov. I.. 'I. "Then shall tliev call ni on !..
but I will not answer; they shall seek Mo

thoroughly subdued is very liuni I tint in. but
everything or person that is exnlttsl n gainst
fiod must bo brought low (L"a. II.. 11,17).
To be cheerfully stibjis-t and willing to Lo

It Is tho privilege of every bo lever to be ns

mercies of David of ln. lv., 3-5.
4.1. "Strangers shall submit themselves
unto Me. As soon us they hear they shall
be obedient unto Mo." This ulo makes us
think of Messiah's reign wheu "they that
dwell In tho wilderness shall bow before
Him, and His enemies shall lick the du.-tt"
(I's. xxli. 0). Hons of strangers shall build
up Zlon's walls, and their kings shall minis
ter unto Israel (I.sa. lx., 10). The word
"submit" Is iu tho margin rendered "Uo or
yield feigned obedience. ' It Is the same In
I's. Ixvl., 3, ami margin, and points to those
who lu tho millennial reign of Christ will
only bo nominally subject and will follow
tho dovll wheu be ls loosed from tbo bit
(liev. xx , 7-10).
4rt. "Strangers -shall fade nwny, nnd thev
shall bo afraid out of their clo.se places."
I'bey shall move out of their holes like
worms of tho earth. They shnll be afraid ot
lha Lord our Rod uud shall fear becuuso ot
thee (Mie. vil.. 17). It shall be a II rm rule,
us with a rod of iron, and tlio.-o who have
svll in their hearts shall fear to it because
ot tho swift Judgments that shall be seut on
ovlldoers. The awful judgments of tho
iribulullon period shall not sjon be forgot

rock, nnd exalted bo the (in 1 of tint rock o'f
my salvation." In tho Lord Jehovah is tho
Itock of Ages' strength (Jsn. x.xvl., 4, mar
gin. He Is tho (Jod ol truth, tho living
tiod, tho King of eternity. At Ills wrath tho
arth shall tremble, and the nations shall not
lie aldn to unldn His indignation (Jer. x., ID,
margin).
4S. "It is Rod that nveiigeth me and that
brlugetn dowu the people uuder me." It
was one of thn blessed habits of David's life
to see and acknowledge Ood in everything.
When he hud haul lu bis power nnd might
easily have slain him, be preferred to leave
him to Ood. When Ab.-nloui drove nlin
from his thmne, bo said, seeing Rod's bund
In It, "Let Him do to mu us seemeth good

stoned him, Instma of lettiug Ablshal kill
ntm, be said tlmt if tho Lord wanted hl.'il to
endure this he would not even a-k why (I
bum. xxvl., 10; 11 Sam. xv.. '20; xvl.. IU).
4 J. "i'hou also hast lifted me up on lil rh
above them that rose up against me. Thou
bust delivered rue from tlio violent num." in
tho morning of tho resurrection, the morn-
lug without clouds (chapter xxill., 4), nor
morning when Ood shall hclu Israel ( i's.
xlvl., 6, margin), when the upright shall
have dominion over tho wicked (I's. xllx.,
14), wheu our Lord shall come iu ills glory
nud by the brightness of His coining destroy
that wicked one, the man ot sin (II Thosj.
II., 3. 8), thou shall we soo tho complete ful-
nilment of these things of wh'ch David bang
and nt which be iu his owu experience hud
remarkable but only partial fulllllrauut.
50. "Therefore 1 will give thanks unto
Theo.O Lord, among tho boat him. uud I will
slug praises unto iliy uamo. Una's pur

While David was Ills anointed, he wns n type
