Psalm 11

This sermon explores Psalm 11 as a call to trust in God's sovereignty amidst the temptation to flee from suffering. The central message contrasts the unreliable sight of human fear with the reliable reality of God's presence in His holy temple, emphasizing that the Lord sees, tests, and ultimately judges the wicked. By identifying the 'Righteous One' as a Christological figure who endures the cup of wrath, the text highlights the theology of the cross as the foundation for Christian hope. The tone is pastoral and instructional, encouraging believers to adopt a posture of resolute courage and to view their trials through the lens of faith rather than sight. Ultimately, the sermon assures the audience that because God is righteous and sees all, the upright can confidently expect to behold His face.
