"Let the righteous strike me; it shall be a kindness. And let him rebuke me; it shall be as excellent oil; let my head not refuse it." Psalm 141.5When reprimanded, those who are born of the Spirit consider the teaching, learn and give thanks to God. But those who are born of the flesh, the tares, get angry, feel like they have to defend themselves and still hold grudges.

The cry of the believer
"Let the groaning of the prisoner come before You; according to the greatness of Your power, preserve those who are appointed to die." Psalm 79.11This groaning is not by just anyone, but someone who believes in the promises of the God of Abraham, and yet is a captive. Times have changed but the moaning continues...
O Mighty One of Jacob, rise up from Your Throne and come to the rescue of those who who put their trust in You!

God and Abraham
"Look to Abraham your father, And to Sarah who bore you;For I called him alone, and blessed him and increased him.” Isaiah 51.2Abraham symbolizes the Lord God, Isaac symbolizes Jesus and the spirit - or faith - that moved Abraham to sacrifice his dream was the Spirit of God. Nobody in their right mind would subject themselves to obey the Word of God unconditionally, without being moved by the Holy Spirit.

Make haste
“Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste." Job 20.2
If faith in the Lord Jesus tells us He won it all for us, consequently,when we act our faith with attitudes, the response to what we have been crying out for must be immediate.

The just vs. The wicked
"He who walks with integrity walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will become known." Proverbs 10.9The just lives in tranquility and peace because his conscience does not accuse him of anything. The same does not happen to those living in sin. Their sinful conscience accuses them all the time and does not allow them to have peace.
