Psalms 12 Commentary

God’s sustaining power is our greatest defense against a culture of diminished faithfulness.

God cares about the unspoken motives behind our words.

This verse warns against trusting flattery and highlights the need to rely on God’s justice.

Those who boast in their words reveal the corruption of relying on self rather than the righteousness of the Almighty.

God promises to arise to rescue the vulnerable in their distress.

God's flawless promises hold firm in every generation.

God alone is our eternal Protector.

Darkness thrives when sin is praised rather than exposed.
