1The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

2Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.

3The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

4The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.

5Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O LORD, for ever.


Psalm 93

 

Today I invite you to reflect together on God the Creator, on the universe over which He reigns, on His power, wisdom, justice, and love.

There are many heads of state in the world, many countries and empires (in the present and in the past), but there is none, there has never been, and there will never be a Ruler like God. He created the universe, gave it laws, and holds it in His hands. His kingdom is the entire universe, the citizens of this kingdom are all people and all inhabitants of other worlds, His laws are the Ten Commandments.

The universe did not begin to exist by accident. Our world is not the result of a «big bang» or «evolution»; God created it, and it possesses great order and wisdom. The universe will endure forever, not as some so-called claim that 'there will be a similar random end of the universe in millions of years', this too is foolishness.

The physical laws of God the Creator are very wise and understandable. His laws are as just as He is great, and this is what the psalm verses from one to three speak of.

God will never allow violations of the laws of physics; He has only allowed the violation of moral laws because humans are not robots and have the freedom to choose.

But how many tragedies have occurred in world history! There is always the question: Why so many wars? How could God allow figures like Hitler, Stalin, Putin and other dictators to exist? Why has so much blood been shed?

Many ask about Hitler and the Holocaust - how could God allow that. It is precisely because of free will. But there are also limitations. As seen in the fourth verse, God sometimes restrains 'many waters', meaning the nations of the world, so that they do not cross certain 'red lines'.

And again about Hitler. They did something: they entered into a computer the entire history of the twentieth century to obtain a model of our world without Hitler. And what did they get? In the world, communism would not only have remained, but would have taken over the entire world by 2017, 100 years after the revolution. And in the communist world, religion would have been persecuted, and there would have been millions killed, albeit completely different ones. For instance, in this world, there would not have been a Jewish State of Israel. But in history, everything happened as it did, and history, as is known, does not tolerate the subjunctive mood.

No one can stop God's plans, as Job said, but people have both the freedom of choice and the responsibility for it. And let us not forget that God's main quality is love. He loves to bless and does not love to punish.

And finally, the last point. God has not left us blind in the darkness. In order for us to have knowledge of the universe and of Him, He has given us His Word - the Holy Scriptures. Every person can know everything they need for salvation. This Word can and should be believed.

In the future, a time will come when there will be no sin, no misfortunes, and all in the universe will serve God with joy. And this will be forever.
