"A psalm or song for the Sabbath day," is looking forward to the Day of Rest of Messiah's reign. This may not have reference to the wilderness time, the cause of being numbered in Numbers 15:32-41, but it is while the Israelites were in the wilderness that they were enroute to the promise land. the day of Rest is at the coming of Messiah at the seventh trumpet. We are approaching the end of our wilderness in this earth age of the flesh, for the first five trumpets of Revelation are either history, or taking place before our eyes today.

This Psalms is looking forward to that time when all the problems of this world age, and the pain of these flesh bodies will be gone and over with. Why? We will all be in our Spiritual bodies, as the angels have, and the next thousand years will be a time when Satan will be in the pit, and his time of deception will be over. His angels fallen angels that came with him to earth will have been destroyed, and those that follow him in ignorance will see the love of the true Christ, be under the Messiah's reign, and within the true Sabbath day. This chapter then is telling us what that true Sabbath day is.

Colossians 2:13 "And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath He quickened together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses;"

When you were dead in your sins, you were made alive together with Jesus Christ, for it was only through Jesus Christ that your sins against God could be forgiven.

Colossians 2:14 "Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to His cross."

It was the nailing of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to that cross that took us out from under the requirement of those blood ordinances of the law, and put us under the shed blood of Jesus Christ. That sacrifice was for one and all times for those that would by faith receive Him, and repent and confess their sins in Jesus name. We look forward to that Sabbath day, or rest day when we will be with our Lord, and the cares and suffering of this world age are over. When we went under the cross of Christ, our rest became Jesus Christ. You are either in Him or you have no rest, and the days of the week have nothing to do with this rest. Jesus Christ's rest is for everyday.

Psalms 92:1 "It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, And to sing praises unto Thy name, O Most High:"

Every day that we live, we sing praises to our Lord, and on that Sabbath day also.

Psalms 92:2 "To shew forth Thy lovingkindness in the morning, and Thy faithfulness every night,"

Our Heavenly Father is faithful to us all the time, to His Word and to all the promises to each of us that are written with His Word. "Every" in the Hebrew text should read, "in the" "night". When we are our darkest moments, He is there to guide us through those tough times.

Psalms 92:3 "Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; And the harp with a solemn sound."

The "solemn sound" is meditation that is going through your mind. When you pray, stop and meditate, "solemn" because it is silent. Thoughts between you and our Lord. When you pray, don't talk all the time, but give our Father a chance to answer your prayer. When people wonder why God doesn't give them an answer, they don't stop talking long enough for God to respond to their prayer. Allow that time of prayer to have it's solemn moments. Meditate on God's Word and his plan, to see how God wants you to be useful to Him. He will bless you when you make yourself useful to God in fulfilling that plan. Only by your prayers, and witnessing will people be brought to the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Make your prayer a two way conversation.

Psalms 92:4 "For Thou, Lord, hast made me glad through Thy work: I will triumph in the works of Thy hands."

As I pray to our Heavenly Father for his guidance and protection, I will have victory in the acts of our Father's hand. Do you know what the Father's Work is? Many don't. They assume it is one thing or another by what people have told them. "The Work of His hands" is the fulfilling of God's Word, all the prophecies in His Word. Those of a personal nature, as well as those that move nations and the elements of this earth. As we live in these final days of this earth age, and see those events take place that were written in his Word thousands of years ago, that is the work of our Lord's hands.

When you witness all this taking place and know that it was written as a warning to those that love him, with their eyes wide open, then there can be nothing but love coming from your heart for Him.

Psalms 92:5 "O Lord, how great are Thy works! And Thy thoughts are very deep."

As we witness those things taking place around us, and read of them in God's Word, to most people those thoughts are to deep for them. It is only by the leading of the Holy Spirit that we can have the spiritual eyes to see and the spiritual ears to hear the truth with understanding. Those deep thought from Our Father Word simplify our lives in this earth age of flesh man. It gives us peace of mind to know that when the things of this world are spinning out of control, that there is a planned purpose for it all, and God is in control. There is a plan and it is completely spelled out in His Word for those with eyes to see and ears to hear the truths from God's Word. Stop and think for a moment, and concentrate on what is going on around you, and for what purpose that those things are taking place. Those things that happen are fulfilling part of God's plan for this earth age. Set men's traditions aside and get into God's Word for understanding. Sure the Sabbath day is when the seventh trump sounds, but we can have every day our Sabbath when we are resting in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Psalms 92:6 "A brutish man knoweth not: Neither doth a fool understand this,"

"A Brutish man" has his mind closed, and the "fool" is to busy running in circles. Proverbs 1:7 tells us; "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: But fools despise wisdom and instruction." The fool despises the wisdom and instruction from God's Word. He takes this part and throws it away, and discards the book of Revelation, the health laws, and just doesn't care what God's Word says. One thing for sure about the brutish man and the fool, as written in Proverbs 1:16; "For their feet run to evil and make haste to shed blood." They are to busy building up themselves and practicing their religion, than to get to the bottom of Father's entire Word. The brutish and the foolish people shall be deceived in our generation, and follow Satan.

Psalms 92:7 "When the wicked spring as the grass, And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; It is that they shall be destroyed for ever:"

The wicked people just pop up, like the grass, every where around you. Stop and think for a moment, this is talking about a Sabbath, or seventh Millennium of thousand years. It will be that time when this earth age of man in the flesh body is over, and all mankind is living in his spiritual incorruptible body, as is spoken of in I Corinthians 15:50-54. Though many will be saved out of the Millennium age by their works, there will also be billions that will ignore the truths that God has put in their minds, and chase after Satan at the close of that Millennium period. This is coming, and it is the true Sabbath. Those that follow Satan will be destroyed for ever.

The great white throne judgment follows this thousand year period, "and the books are opened, and the book of life". Then all souls will be judged out of those books by their works done only in that Millennium age. Is this a second chance? not hardly for they never had a chance in this earth age, as all truth will have dried up.

Amos 8:11 "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord."

Traditions and false doctrine are replacing the truths of God's Word at this time of the end of the age of flesh man.

Revelation 20:12 "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works."

Only the ones found worthy by their works in the Millennium age will have their names written in the book of life from that age of Christ's kingdom on earth. There will be not salvation by faith then. Why? Because Christ will be with us, and there will be no question as to who our Lord is, or what He requires of us. Remember that the elect of God from this age will receive their rewards at the sounding of the seventh trump, and reign jointly with Christ in this Millennium age. The duties are spelled out in Ezekiel 44, as the elect, those sealed in their minds are referred to as the Zadok.

Revelation 20:13 "And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works."

All souls whether in heaven or on earth will be judged at this time, and of course to the Zadok, the just and elect, this will be a time of rewards and entering into eternity.

Revelation 20:14 "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire, This is the second death."

The first death is the death of your flesh body, for man can kill and and take your life from these flesh bodies, but only God can kill your soul.

Revelation 20:15 "And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."

Those wicked ones may pop up like the grass in the field, but they are going to be mowed down like the hay in harvest time. They will be destroyed forever, and even the thought of their existence by their loved ones will be erased from those loved ones minds. They will not exist in the eternal age that is recorded in Revelation 21.

Psalms 92:8 "But Thou, Lord, art most high for evermore."

Satan will be destroyed at the close of the Millennium age, at the great white throne judgment, but our heavenly Father will live forever, along with those that have washed their sins in the blood of the cross through repentance in Jesus name. If you are one of the Father's children, you can claim this promise of salvation; being the first step, the milk of the Word of God. You must have Salvation, for it is the starting point, but from there you increase your worth to our Heavenly Father as you study His Word and follow His instruction.

Psalms 92:9 "For, lo, Thine enemies, O Lord, For, lo, Thine enemies shall perish; All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered."

When you are in Christ, those that are against Christ and enemies of Christ are also your enemies. God is saying two times here for emphasis, "For, lo, Thine enemies shall perish; " and they shall. Remember what God promised each of that have repented and follow the ways of Christ? John 3:16; "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

All those that allow themselves to go whoring after the antichrist will be scattered

Psalms 92:10 "But my horn shalt Thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil."

My "horn" is my strength, my power and authority shall be exalted like the power of a wild ox. This is speaking of the Millennium age when we are living in the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. this anointing will take place, and it is not that far away. We are in the final generation, as many of the seals of that generation are long past. The Jews have gone back to Jerusalem; The one world order now controls the nations of the earth, as well as the seas and the space. Its four hidden dynasties control every area of your life, you home, schools, the government, your job, and under the religious realm, even most churches. In that Millennium age, the anointed one is the Messiah, Jesus the Christ. And when you anoint yourself, your home or what ever is in need of the anointing with the olive oil. Their is another anointing oil, and that is the truth of God's Word, as spoken on in the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25. Today many are not putting that oil in their minds and hearts to stand ready for the time we are in. They simply will not have enough truth, wisdom and understanding from God's Word to keep themselves from being deceived when Satan and his fallen angels arrive in person here on earth.

Psalms 92:11 "Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, And mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me."

From the manuscripts lets take another look at this verse. Mine eye also shall see my enemies fall, and mine ears shall hear the wicked that rise up against me fall. Those enemies of Christ are finished at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ at the seventh trumpet. This is why we should be rejoicing today, as the enemies of God come against us. It is not far away now when they will fall, for when you see them you are looking a the dead.

Psalms 92:12 "The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon."

"The cedar in Lebanon" is represented as the tree of our people, the house of Israel. Remember in Isaiah 14, Lucifer wanted to be one of those trees, but he can not. The ceder of Lebanon is a child of God, and Satan's sin from the first earth age has brought judgment down on his head.

Psalms 92:13 "Those that be planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God."

There will only be one people that can enter into the court of God in that millennium age of Christ's kingdom. Those people are God's elect, the Zadok of Ezekiel 44; the firstfruits that took a stand against Satan when he was here on earth deceiving all the people of the world. They and only they can enter into the inner courts of Jesus Christ in the Millennium age. If you have the eyes to see and the ears to hear with understanding, you shall see your enemies fall, and taste of the goodness our our Lord in that Millennium age.

Psalms 92:14 "They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; They shall be fat and flourishing;"

In that Millennium age, you will be in your spiritual or soul body, and that body will not age. They shall be alive and about our Lords business. No this is not a of sitting around, for we will be the judges and priests in that kingdom. There will be much to do. All angelic beings are described as young men, for angels are in the masculine and simply do not age in their incorruptible bodies.

Psalms 92:15 "To shew that the Lord is upright: He is my rock, And there is no unrighteousness in Him."

"Upright" means, "the just", and the courts of our Lord's kingdom will be just and accurate. There will be no deals under the table, looking the other way, or giving favors in the courts of our Lord. The rewards will be for service rendered and recorded in the books, as we read above in Revelation 20:12-15. Our Lord is all knowing and He is righteous in all his ways.
