Welcome to Day 2620 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2620 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 64:1-10 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2620 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2620 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. In today’s Wisdom Nugget, we’re exploring the Psalms—ancient prayers and songs filled with wisdom, hope, and practical guidance for everyday living. Today, we find ourselves in Psalm 64, a profound prayer written by King David during a time when hidden enemies surrounded him. David faced threats not just from swords and spears, but from deceptive words and hidden plots. In this Psalm, he honestly brings his fears before God, confidently trusting that God’s justice ultimately prevails. So, let’s explore Psalm 64:1-10 from the New Living Translation, carefully uncovering its wisdom verse by verse: Psalm 64:1-10 (NLT) 1 O God, listen to my complaint. Protect my life from my enemies’ threats. 2 Hide me from the plots of this evil mob, from this gang of wrongdoers. 3 They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows. 4 They shoot from ambush at the innocent, attacking suddenly and fearlessly. 5 They encourage each other to do evil and plan how to set their traps in secret. “Who will ever notice?” they ask. 6 As they plot their crimes, they say, “We have devised the perfect plan!” Yes, the human heart and mind are cunning. 7 But God himself will shoot them with his arrows, suddenly striking them down. 8 Their own tongues will ruin them, and all who see them will shake their heads in scorn. 9 Then everyone will be afraid; they will proclaim the mighty acts of God and realize all the amazing things he does. 10 The godly will rejoice in the Lord and find shelter in him. And those who do what is right will praise him.
