Leading Heads Of Psalms.
SA 9Psa. 9-The outbreathings of the Spirit of Christ in this Psalm are most blessed-for in spirit He is in the things of glory, while in circumstance in the trials of rejected righteousness down here-and yet out of them in communion in the things to follow after: this, the blessed power of faith and patience of the saints, sustained and led by the Spirit of God. The enemies are seen defeated, though still in their own triumph. The faithful in Christ Jesus are triumphant in Him, though still, as sheep for the slaughter here. The principle is large and blessed, whether for those to be gathered in Zion, or for those to meet the Lord in the air: intelligent faith triumphs above present weakness in both-all to the praise of our one supreme Lord.
SA 10Psa. 10-The Spirit of Christ, detecting the imaginations and purposes of the evil man, and in abhorrence of them crying out unto the Lord, from the place of humiliation, for righteous judgment.
Ver. 16-18.-Power consequent on humiliation, because of the Lord reigning, and righteousness established. Blessed are they that endure in patience.
