Lord, This Is A Hard Saying!

1 - Imprecatory Psalms - Psalms 139 and 137

“Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD? And do I not

loathe those who rise up against you? I hate them with complete hatred; I count them my enemies.”

How should Christians deal with the intense emotions we

might feel against unrighteousness in the world? How should it affect our prayer life? Is it okay to pray against certain people?

Today we cover “imprecatory” psalms, prayers which ask God

to bring his vengeance down upon the wicked. We explore if these types of prayers still have a place for the Christian today.
