Psalms 39:
I guided my ways and my mouth in the presence of the wicked until my heart burned within me and I spoke out. The lifespan of man is just a mere breadth and shadow before God. Man may heap wealth, but never knows who will gather it. God, I wait for you to intercede on behalf of my transgressions and do not make me a scorn for fools. No one can guarantee anything but God and no condition is ever permanent. So only the wise and the noble walks with God.
Psalms 40:
I waited on God and God answered me. He lifted me up from destruction and placed me on solid ground. He gave me a new song of praise in my mouth and many will praise God. Blessed is he that trust God rather than men with power. God listen to me without offerings and sacrifices, and I have told the world of God’s great deeds. Help me God because my iniquity are more than my hair. Let those who want my life fall into shame and dishonor, but let all who speak of you rejoice and be happy. So God does not need your tithe and offering to bless or listen to you. No matter the condition in which you find yourself (unemployment, homelessness, childlessness, being fatherless, or lack of money), just stay with God and you will always have cause to rejoice. Every sad situation is just temporary as long as you repent and follow God.
Psalms 41:
Blessed is he that considers the poor. God protects and stands by him. The people call him blessed and his health is fully restored. God, please heal me for my sins are plenty. My enemies want my death and wish me evil. God upheld me because of my integrity and has placed me in his presence forever. So God’s integrity is to faithfully walk with God, admit that you are imperfect, and repent to try to improve your ways in God’s rules and guidance. Considering the poor does not mean giving pennies to non-profits to help a limited group of poor people in order to get tax benefits and save money, but rather, giving freely to the poor because you have taken nothing from them. The wicked like to give the poor to look good publicly but have utilized man-made laws to rob the poor of billions.
