O Lord God

Psalm 5

Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation. Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up. For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity. Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man. But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple. Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue. Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee. But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.-Psalm 5:1-12/the complete psalm***King David was an Israelite from the tribe of Judah, descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob (Israel) and Leah, and Jacob and Leah's 4th born son Judah. Over 500 years  after the Lord God promised to give Canaan, a land inhabited by idolaters, to Abraham, and Isaac, and to Jacob, and their descendants, Joshua led his fellow Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the Promised Land. Over 300 years after 110-year-old Joshua died and was buried in his tribe's portion of the Promised Land, 30-year-old David became the 2nd king to reign over all of the Israelites. Solomon, the 2nd child born to David and Bathsheba, was the 3rd king to reign over all of the Israelites. Moreover, David and Solomon were divinely inspired writers. David is widely recognized as the writer of Psalm 5, and Psalm 11 and other psalms in the Holy Bible. In Psalm 5 and Psalm 11, David revealed that the Lord God hates doers of wickedness and hates those who love violence. Solomon is widely recognized as the writer of most of the proverbs in the Book of Proverbs in the Holy Bible. In Proverbs Chapter 6, Solomon revealed 6 actions that the Lord God hates. Isaiah, Jeremiah, Hosea, Amos, Zechariah, and Malachi were prophets of the Lord God and revealed other actions that the Lord God hates. Over 500 years after both of the kingdoms of the Israelites in the Promised Land were conquered, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Approximately 30 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by Mary's relative John the Baptist, from the tribe of Jacob and Leah's 3rd born son Levi. Jesus having prayed, the heavens tearing open, the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus. The Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. Jesus fasted for 40 days and nights and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus to be the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world. In Galilee, Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God. Before Jesus was betrayed, arrested, crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, and returned to heaven less than 3 1/2 years after he was baptized, Jesus revealed lessons of hate that involved the Lord God and Jesusand believers, non-believers, individuals, families, enemiesevildoers, riches, and the world.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:2:23, 1 Samuel 1:1-3:21, 8:1-31:13, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Proverbs 1:1, 6:1-35, Isaiah 1:1-31, 61:1-11, Jeremiah 44:1-30, Hosea 9:1-17, Amos 5:1-6:14, Zechariah 8:1-23, Malachi 2:1-17, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
