THE BOOK OF PSALMS

Psalms - Chapter 68 

Psalms 68:1 says, "[[To the chief Musician, A Psalm or Song of David.]] Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him." Psalms 68:2 says, "As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God." "Chief Musician" means "to excel, be bright, be preeminent, be perpetual, be overseer, be enduring - to He who has the victory, to He who gives the victory - Father God Almighty through Christ Jesus." "Psalm" means "meditation." "Song" means "to be sung." Father God is a "Consuming Fire" as is taught in Hebrews 12:29 which says, "For our God is a consuming fire." This is tender love, grace, kindness, protection, mercy and warmth to those in the service of our Father, His Holy Spirit; "Father’s presence through His Shekinah Glory." However, to the enemies of our LORD and Christ Jesus, it shall burn their souls from within [satan, the fallen angels, those who follow after satan when he is loosed for a short time after the Millennial Kingdom teaching]. The "lawless {wicked}" ones are the "elements" taught of in II Peter 3:10 which says, "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up." When Christ Jesus returns as "King of kings and Lord of lords", all those things which offend Father God Almighty, which are evil spirits, the fallen angels and all forms of wickedness and idolatry that caused humanity to sin shall perish. 

Psalms 68:3 says, "But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice." Psalms 68:4 says, "Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him." All those who do not bow a knee to satan when he is cast to this earth as the first/false anti-christ, who are the very elect and the "elect {those who shall come to the knowledge of truth before the sounding of the Seventh Trumpet}" shall joyfully magnify Father God as they "stand" with Christ Jesus through the Millennial Kingdom teaching. They shall be celebrating Father's love for His children because they had "works for Him" which is the only thing you can take with you into the Eternity. "JAH" should be "YAH {YAHOVAH, YHVH; I AM THAT I AM}" which is the "Divine Name of Almighty God." "Exalt YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty" as all "Glory is given to our LORD" who gave to humanity the "Greatest Love of All {Christ Jesus}" and by love and belief, any of humanity because of Christ Jesus, can approach the "Throne of Almighty God" declaring love, confessing of sins and asking forgiveness in the "Name of Christ Jesus." "Rideth" means "to ride in a vehicle" as is taught in Ezekiel 1:4 which says, "And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness [was] about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire." "Whirlwind" meaning there was a "spinning object" there. Keep in mind that Ezekiel is describing what he saw in the best way he could in that he was living in the year 550/600 B.C. "And a fire" is our "Father God" who is a "Consuming Fire." "A brightness was about it" means "it was brilliant and beautiful." "Colour" in Hebrew means "what the eye experiences, appearance; {figuratively, of mental and spiritual faculties}." "Amber" in the Hebrew manuscripts is "highly polished bronze, metallic." In other words, there was a vehicle there twirling and whirling, and our "Father’s Throne was within this carrier." This should dispel the myth of Christ Jesus returning to us on a literal white horse. 

Psalms 68:5 says, "A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation." There are no orphans of humanity since "Father God is the Father of the fatherless; the Father of us all." Father God will "vindicate {judge}" those who are "forsaken {widows}" or any of humanity who are afflicted or oppressed. Father God who sees all and knows all things takes care of His children from "His Majestic Throne in Heaven." 

Psalms 68:6 says, "God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land." When "any of the very elect" becomes separated from their spiritual family and teaching, Father God will "unite {solitary}" or bring them back home, freeing them from the "false doctrines and traditions of men {bound with chains}" since they are "under His will, having been chosen before the foundation of this Flesh or Second Earth Age [Ephesians - Chapter 1]." For those who refuse to have eyes that see and ears to hear what "thus saith our LORD" after the Millennial Kingdom teaching, Father will allow them to enter into the "deception of satan {dry land; lake of fire}" since they have chosen the path of free will, which means they have rejected "Father God and His will upon them." 

Psalms 68:7 says, "O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah:" Just as Father God brought His children out of bondage from the Egyptians leading them by the pillar of fire by night and the cloud by day [Exodus - Chapter 13], our LORD shall lead His children out of the bondage of satan as Christ Jesus defeats all enemies and reigns over the Millennial Kingdom teaching. "Selah" means "stop and meditate on what has just been taught which is Father God always takes care of His own and connect it with what is about to be taught which is the many blessings our LORD bestows to and upon His obedient children." 

Psalms 68:8 says, "The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God: even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel." Psalms 68:9 says, "Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary." "Sinai" means "thorny." This is the place where our Father God gave to Moses the "Law, which is the Ten Commandments [Exodus - Chapter 31]" to keep humanity on a righteous path of direction and instruction through discipline and obedience by adhering to "Father's Commandments, coupled with His Good Gospel." When you "stand" for Father God as Deborah did in Judges - Chapter 5 who sang the praise song of victory because of the moisture that fell from Heaven causing the "horses {power} and the chariots of iron" of the enemy to be swept away and immovable by the flood from Father God, you too will sing the "victory song" which is "The Song of the Lamb and The Song of Moses" when Christ Jesus returns as "King of kings and Lord of lords" when you "stand" as Deborah did. If your "spirituality {house}" however is built on the "false doctrines and traditions of men {sand}" which will cause you to be "deceived {and it fell}" by the flood of lies coming from the mouth of satan as the first/false anti-christ [Matthew 7:24 - 29], as Sisera and his army fell by Deborah and her army who was led by our Father God, so shall all who bow a knee to satan fall. The "plentiful rain" is "Father's Law" the "Ten Commandments" of instructions to His children. When you love our Father and are faithful and obedient to "His Word" and "stand" on the "Rock of our Foundation who is Christ Jesus" until our Lord returns as "King of kings and Lord of lords", you shall be a part of the "Inheritance" taught of in Ezekiel 44:28 which says "And it shall be unto them for an inheritance: I [am] their inheritance {Almighty God}: and ye shall give them no possession in Israel: I [am - {Almighty God}] their possession." Everything belongs to our Father God who created all things and when our LORD is pleased with you, He wants you to be a part of all that He owns "if" you are one of His "set aside ones." 

Psalms 68:10 says, "Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor." "Thy congregation" is speaking of "Father's children, humanity" and just as there were few of the Israelites who entered into the promised land, there shall be few of this generation who shall sing "The Song of the Lamb and The Song of Moses", entering into the Millennial Kingdom "to teach with Christ Jesus who Reigns Supreme." The "poor" are the "humble or oppressed." Father God is offering "His loving-kindness and spiritual prosperity {goodness}" to His children who are spiritually dry and wandering fruitlessly with no "spiritual water {Christ Jesus}" since they are not seeking direction, guidance and instruction from His Word. Loving and serving Father God means you have confidence and seek refuge in "His Promises" which you will only know if you study "His Good Gospel." 

Psalms 68:11 says, "The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it." Father God "bestowed His Commandments, Promises and Teachings through His Good Gospel" to be "announced, taught {published}" by His "army who are the very elect {company}" and because of their faithfulness to Almighty God, they shall be a part of the "inheritance {great}" taught of in Ezekiel - Chapter 44. 

Psalms 68:12 says, "Kings of armies did flee apace: and she that tarried at home divided the spoil." The "kings of armies" are the "heathen [kenites]." "She" is the "wife {very elect} of our Victor {Christ Jesus}." Father God by "His Power, Might and Control" will scatter the armies of the "kenites [heathen]" resulting in the "wife of our Victor waiting" on our "Bridegroom who is Christ Jesus" and "sharing in the inheritance {dividing the spoil}" for their "love, obedience and service to Almighty God."   

Psalms 68:13 says, "Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold." The "dove" is symbolic of the "Holy Spirit." "Lien among the pots" means "taking pleasure in filthy things which are religious false doctrines and teachings [satan]."  When you hear truth and have a change of heart and mind accepting "Father's Good Gospel" and you separate yourself from the religious false doctrines and traditions of men, by the "Blood of Christ Jesus" you are cleansed and delivered from the hands of the enemies. By your love and faithful study of "Father's Word", seeking the increase of understanding only He can give, this knowledge of truth will bring you under the will and in the service of "Almighty God through His Holy Spirit." 

Psalms 68:14 says, "When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon." The enemies of our Father God upon this earth shall be so innumerable when they are "broken {scattered}" with the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ as "King of kings and Lord of lords" that they and their spoil shall portray the "image or likeness {Salmon}" of a covering of snow over a great mountain. 

Psalms 68:15 says, "The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan; an high hill as the hill of Bashan." Psalms 68:16 says, "Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in; yea, the LORD will dwell in it for ever." The "hill of God" is "Mount Zion" which is "fruitful." While "Bashan" may be symbolic of the great powers of the enemies of our Father God, it can only envy since it cannot "stand against or measure up" to "Jerusalem {Mount Zion}" which is "Father God's most favorite place in all of creation [Ezekiel 16:8] and where our LORD shall sit upon His Throne, Reigning throughout the Eternity [Revelation - Chapter 21]."  

Psalms 68:17 says, "The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place." Father God has a host in Heaven" that protects His children as is taught in II Kings 6:17 when Elisha prayed to Almighty God for the eyes of the "young man {servant of Elisha}" to be opened so he could see with spiritual eyes the "chariots of fire {the realm of Father's protection}" that was in the Heavenly dimension. The enemies of our Father had an enormous army surrounding the city of Elisha and Father God had a "Heavenly host" surrounding "His enemies." Father God takes care of His children who serve Him and will make all things "right that are wrong." Just as our Father fought the battles of His prophets and servants of the "Old Testament", He shall fight the battles of His children who love, serve and have faith in Him as we now live when satan is cast to this earth with his army surrounding the whole world to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to humanity, and Father shall show them the same mercy they show His children. 

Psalms 68:18 says, "Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell among them." When you love, serve and are under the will of "YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty, who is our Salvation {Christ Jesus}", He will take your heart captive, save you and draw you "unto Himself through Christ Jesus." Ephesians 4:8 says, "Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men." "Led captivity captive" means Christ Jesus, while He was yet in the tomb, went to prison and taught those who had passed away, so the path of salvation was open to them [I Peter 3:18 - 20]. Father God gave to humanity the "Greatest Gift of all, Emmanuel {God with us}." After our Lord Jesus Christ sacrificed "His Perfect Self" on that cross at Calvary, He arose and "fifty {Holy Spirit}" days later, ascended to sit on "High" at the "Right Hand of His Father in Heaven",  our "Advocate before the Throne of Almighty God." Christ Jesus left "His Holy Spirit" to dwell with humanity until He returns at the "Second Advent." 

Psalms 68:19 says, "Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah" Praise and thank our "Father God Almighty and Christ Jesus" for the abundant blessings bestowed upon all who follow our "Living Word who is Christ Jesus", doing the works of our "Father God in spreading His Good Gospel." Father blesses His children who love, serve and are under His will spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally. Almighty God is "Fair and Just" and will see to it that His children receive exactly what they deserve for sharing, teaching and planting seeds of truth wherever there are eyes to see and ears to hear. "Selah" means "stop and meditate on what has just been taught which is the sacrifice of Emmanuel {God with Us} and connect it with what is about to be taught which is salvation offered to save all souls through love, belief, confession and repentance before the Throne of Almighty God in the Name of Christ Jesus." 

Psalms 68:20 says, "He that is our God is the God of salvation; and unto GOD the Lord belong the issues from death." Only "YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty" has the power to save any soul from death and this was accomplished through the crucifixion of "Yeshua, Christ Jesus" who is our "deliverance {issues from death}" from death, who is satan [Hebrews 2:14 & 15].  

Psalms 68:21 says, "But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses." Father God will wound the head of satan as is taught in Genesis 3:15 which says, "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head (satan), and thou shalt bruise his heel (Christ Jesus)." It was satan who bruised the heels of Christ Jesus as those stakes were driven through them to nail our Lord to that cross. It shall be our Lord Jesus Christ who shall "bruise [crush]" the head of satan and he shall exist no more; becoming ashes from within which is death of his very soul. At the time of the "Great White Throne Judgment", Father God shall "destroy [blot out from the Book of Life]" the souls of all who continue in their wicked, arrogant ways if they "chose" to follow satan when he is loosed for that short time after the Millennial Kingdom teaching. 

Psalms 68:22 says, "The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea:" Following the subject, Father God is speaking of His enemies in the prior Verse. "My people" in italics, which means it was added for clarification, however incorrectly since there is a mistranslation. "My people" should read "my enemies." Our LORD is saying He shall bring back His enemies from any place they may run in an effort to hide from "His Great White Throne Judgment" since there is no sea or any other place deep enough to conceal them.  

Psalms 68:23 says, "That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the tongue of thy dogs in the same." The "very elect {foot}" shall be a part of the trampling of satan's one world religious order {Isaiah 63:3 & 4} when he sits his vile self in Jerusalem as the first/false anti-christ, perpetrating deception with "his children [kenites]" against humanity. The very elect shall give a testimony against satan and his entourage when they are led up before his synagogues as is taught in Mark 13:11 and the "Holy Spirit" shall speak through them against the perverse, deceitful, deceptive sayings of the "wicked ones {dogs [a derogatory term]}." 

Psalms 68:24 says, "They have seen thy goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary." Christ Jesus, when He returns to this earth as "King of kings and Lord of lords" shall enter into his "sanctuary on Mount Zion" which is "Jerusalem {Millennial Temple}" as every knee shall bow before Him and every tongue shall confess Father God Almighty. 

Psalms 68:25 says, "The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after; among them were the damsels playing with timbrels." The "singers, players and damsels" who will be rejoicing shall be the "very elect and the elect" as they sing "The Song of the Lamb and The Song of Moses" when our Lord Jesus Christ returns as "King of kings and Lord of lords." This shall be a great time of rejoicing for "all those {very elect - wife}" who never bowed a knee to satan and for "those {elect - bride}" who came to understand who it was defiling the temple [satan] "before" seeing our Lord Jesus Christ returning to this earth. 

Psalms 68:26 says, "Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, from the fountain of Israel." The "very elect {fountain of Israel}" and the "elect" shall gather together "praising and magnifying {bless} Almighty God" when "Christ Jesus" returns to this earth when that "Seventh Trumpet" sounds. 

Psalms 68:27 says, "There is little Benjamin with their ruler, the princes of Judah and their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali." "Benjamin" means "son of the right hand or son of good fortune {inheritance}." "Judah" means "he shall be praised." "Zabulon" means "a habitation." Naphtali" means "wrestling." All of humanity should seek to be as the "very elect" who are "in the service of and under the will of Almighty God" so that they may overcome and not "wrestle" with knowing our "True Christ" from satan the anti-christ. "Accepting and loving Christ Jesus as Savior with a heart of love for Father God", confessing of sins and repenting before the "Throne of Almighty God" in the "Name of Christ Jesus" is the beginning of your true christian walk. Commit with a heart that is asking, seeking and knocking [Matthew 7:7] for understanding through faithful study so that you may be a part of the "inheritance", praising Father God for "His Love, Grace, Power and Might" at "His Habitation" which is "His House of Beth-el" where the truth of Father's Word is taught wherein there is "Deliverance through Christ Jesus."  

Psalms 68:28 says, "Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us." Paul taught that when you are weak, then you are strong as II Corinthians 12:10 says, "Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong." When you have done all that you possibly can, having exhausted all of your spiritual strength to be pleasing to our LORD as you witness for Christ Jesus and you begin to feel weak because eyes do not see and ears do not hear, you are strong when you "call on Father God" knowing "He is your help." When satan is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to humanity, "Father God is your only strength" to overcome his vile deceit. 

Psalms 68:29 says, "Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee." This is as it shall be in the "Eternity" as is taught in Revelation 21:22 - 27 when the very elect shall lead "people {nations}" of their own "ethnos {same culture}" into "New Jerusalem" wherein is our "Temple" who is "YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty and Yeshua, Christ Jesus", bestowing "love, praise, honor and glory" upon our "Creator" who sits upon "His Throne in His most favorite place." 

Psalms 68:30 says, "Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people, till every one submit himself with pieces of silver: scatter thou the people that delight in war." "Company of spearmen" is speaking of "Egypt" which is symbolic of "the wicked one [satan] and his children." "Silver" is symbolic of the "shame and humiliation" that shall be upon the wicked. There shall be no peace from the wicked ones until Christ Jesus returns to this earth as "King of kings and Lord of lords." At that time there shall be the spiritual "Battles of Armageddon and Hamon-Gog [Revelation 16:16 - 21] wherein our Lord Jesus Christ shall defeat the enemies of Father God in the time it takes to blink your eyes. 

Psalms 68:31 says, "Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God." Psalms 68:32 says, "Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah:" When Christ Jesus returns to this earth as "King of kings and Lord of lords" every knee, including satan, shall bow to Him and every tongue shall confess Father God Almighty. After the Millennial Kingdom teaching and satan is loosed for that short season, Father God Almighty with all of His Heavenly host shall descend to this earth which shall be a "New Heaven and a New Earth [Revelation - Chapter 21]" as our LORD and Christ Jesus are "loved, praised, honored and glorified." "Selah" means "stop and meditate on what has just been taught which are the praises that shall be given to Almighty God and Christ Jesus and connect it with what is about to be taught which is that exhortation to praise Almighty God; for He Alone is Worthy to be praised as shall be taught in the closing Verses." 

Psalms 68:33 says, "To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice." Psalms 68:34 says, "Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds." Psalms 68:35 says, "O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God." We studied what "rideth" means in Verse 4. This is the means by which the "Throne of Almighty God and Christ Jesus" move between Heaven and earth.  From the "Former, First or Heavenly Earth Age", Father God has "spoken {voice}" to His children who "love, serve and are under His will" which means "they have eyes to see and ears to hear" wherein the "Power and Might of Almighty God" is believed with confidence. Father God spoke to His children in times past and continues to speak with His children through "His Holy Word" which is "Firm, Powerful and Strong; the Rock of our Foundation, Christ Jesus, through His Holy Spirit." Because of "His Power and Might; Praise Father God." There is not one soul created that can stand against the "Majestic Authority of Almighty God" and when you are in the "service of and under the will of our Father", look to the "Heavens" where our "LORD sits upon His Throne, Christ Jesus at His Right Hand"; our "Living Word and Intercessor." "Terrible" means "awesome, to be revered, to cause astonishment and awe" which only Father God Almighty can accomplish from "His Holy Majesties {Houses of Beth-el}" where truth is taught. Father extends "strength and power" through "His Word" if you have eyes to see with ears that hear and are not too lazy to study, seeking the increase of understanding only He can give. Love, glorify, honor, magnify, praise, serve and worship "YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty and His Beloved Son, Yeshua Christ Jesus, wherein lies our Victory, Deliverance and Eternal Life."
