“Lift them up for ever.”
- Psalm 28:9
God’s people need lifting up. They are very heavy by nature. They have no
wings, or, if they have, they are like the dove of old which lay among the
pots; and they need divine grace to make them mount on wings covered with
silver, and with feathers of yellow gold. By nature sparks fly upward, but
the sinful souls of men fall downward. O Lord, “lift them up for ever!”
David himself said, “Unto thee, O God, do I lift up my soul,” and he here
feels the necessity that other men’s souls should be lifted up as well as
his own. When you ask this blessing for yourself, forget not to seek it
for others also. There are three ways in which God’s people require to be
lifted up. They require to be elevated in character. Lift them up, O Lord;
do not suffer thy people to be like the world’s people! The world lieth in
the wicked one; lift them out of it! The world’s people are looking after
silver and gold, seeking their own pleasures, and the gratification of
their lusts; but, Lord, lift thy people up above all this; keep them from
being “muck-rakers,” as John Bunyan calls the man who was always scraping
after gold! Set thou their hearts upon their risen Lord and the heavenly
heritage! Moreover, believers need to be prospered in conflict. In the
battle, if they seem to fall, O Lord, be pleased to give them the victory.
If the foot of the foe be upon their necks for a moment, help them to
grasp the sword of the Spirit, and eventually to win the battle.
Lord, lift up thy children’s spirits in the day of conflict; let them not
sit in the dust, mourning for ever.
Suffer not the adversary to vex them sore, and make them fret; but if
they have been, like Hannah, persecuted, let them sing of the mercy of a
delivering God.
We may also ask our Lord to lift them up at the last! Lift them up by
taking them home, lift their bodies from the tomb, and raise their souls
to thine eternal kingdom in glory.
