Read Psalm 108:7-9
https://et.gy/4dUwZzc
God has promised in his sanctuary: "Moab is my washbasin; on Edom I hurl my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph."
Psalm 108:7,9
Everyday names are used to dramatize redemption: portions of the promised land (Shechem, Succoth, Gilead, Manasseh, Ephraim, Judah) become instruments for God's rule, while traditionally hostile nations (Moab, Edom, Philistia) are subordinated to God's victory. The eternal story of salvation is localized in the familiar vocabulary of geography.
Prayer: O God, I want to acquire a lively sense of your active rule in the towns and nations around me to experience your promises and be confident of your victory, through Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. Amen.
