Psalm 129 reminds us that while God’s people may face affliction, they will never be overcome. The psalmist declares, “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me” (Psalm 129:2). This verse speaks to the resilience of those who trust in the Lord—though trials come, they do not have the final say. Just as Israel endured oppression yet remained because of God’s faithfulness, so too can we stand firm in our struggles, knowing that “The Lord is righteous; he has cut the cords of the wicked” (Psalm 129:4). No matter what opposition we face, our hope is in the unshakable righteousness of God, who upholds and delivers His people. Let this psalm encourage you to trust in God’s sustaining power, for He is faithful through every trial.
