PSALM 92 Spiritual Victory

Psalm 91:8 NLT
But you will see it with your eyes:
       you will see how the wicked are punished.
Psalm 92:7 NLT
Although the wicked flourish like weeds
       and evildoers blossom with success
       there is only eternal destruction ahead of them.
Psalm 92:9 NLT
Your enemies, LORD, will surely perish;
       all evildoers will be scattered.
Psalm 92:11 NLT
With my own eyes I have seen the downfall
       of my enemies;
With my own ears I have heard the defeat 
       of my wicked opponents.

Psalm 92 is a song of VICTORY for God's people
The wicked and evildoers are destroyed.
Enemies perish.
Evildoers are scattered.
Adversaries are defeated
and wicked foes are routed!

Psalm 92 talks of God's people as;-
       those who live in the shelter of the Most High
          and who find rest in the shadow of the Almighty
There is the promise in verse 10 that;-
          if you make the LORD your refuge and
          if you make the Most High your shelter
          no evil will conquer you.
We know now (in the light of the  New Testament )
          that our empowerment for spiritual victory
          arises in the triune nature of our God.
Acts 1:8 NLT
When the Holy Spirit has come upon you,
          you will receive power.......
Romans 5:5 NLT
For we know how dearly God loves us,
          because he has given us the Holy Spirit
          to fill our hearts with his love.
1st Corinthians 12:4 NLT
now there are different kinds of spiritual gifts,
       but it is the same Holy Spirit
       who is the source of them all.
Galatians 5:22-23 NLT
when the Holy Spirit controls our lives,
       he will produce this kind of fruit in us;
       love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
       faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Psalm 92:14 NLT
Even in old age they will still produce fruit .
