Bitachon 183 - Israel's Enemies Fall Fast

you're listening to the 183rd edition of the podcast and we're continuing inim from we're in now in chapter 64 the last of the chapter and the p is let the righteous individual rejoice in God and trust in him and all those who are straight of heart let them all not just the individual sadic but anybody who sees the Salvation let them all praise either praise the pup praise Hashem or let them all praise their own faith rejoice in their faith before we actually get to the on thek I'd like to share with you um the whole par of before I do I just want to mention that it is raining out here and I am holding a an umbrella as you might see so if it gets in the shot just uh understand it's also why I'm a little close to the camera because I'm trying to protect myself and the camera from the rain it's just a drizzle but we love the rain here we rejoice in hashem's Bounty so here's the chapter to the conductor a song of King David let God hear my voice as I speak to him let my in the fear of my enemy let my life be [Music] protected protect me from the plans of the evil ones mayen from the thoughts and the and the and the from the thoughts and their plans of those who do evil they sharpen their tongues like a they prepared their arrows with uh with a very bitter word meaning they say certain things in order to hurt me what they're trying to do they're trying to cover up the fact that they're rash that they're Wicked and the way that they do that is by hiding themselves hiding their their true intentions but what they plan to do is to shoot to shoot their arrows at me at the innocent one from hiding they'll suddenly shoot at us and we and there's not even a chance either can mean we won't even know to be afraid or we won't even be able to see it and this reminds me very much of what's going on here in Israel right now where we're being shot ATM has given us incredible wisdom that we can know many times not always before it happens but we can know that it's being shot and we can be able to shoot it down they strengthen themselves to do evil they speak of all of the traps that they wish to set they say who's going to even see it who will even notice it we can we can get our enemies our enemies say about us they can get us they do all kinds of ways they they keep uh masking themselves in mask after mask in order to present themselves as righteous it's hard to be able to tell what's going on inside of their hearts but Hashem strikes them suddenly might be in helicopter that crash might be through the wisdom of our own Army our own intelligence to through beepers but suddenly they get knocked down their own mouths give them away I'm thinking about Biden and his own fall the fall of the ran the fall of the wicked his own mouth gave him away everybody saw all of those who were inclined perhaps to follow in the ways of the wicked they saw they saw what happened and they realized it's not a good way to go and finally our let the righteous individual rejoice in God and trust in him call and let all those who are straight of heart let them say praise let them praise Hashem or let them praise their own righteous ways okay the Jal has stopped I'm going to actually put down the umbrella if need be we'll bring it back those are the PIM in 70 the 64th chapter of amazing beautiful now I'd like to read to you from the MIM they explain like this brings down says this is a reference to Danel the Prophet Daniel in the Merit of the people of Israel right we have two aspects here in this P we have the individual righteous individual thead who is trusting in hem and then we have the we have the praise of a greater number of people all those who are straight of heart so Mish understands that there was aad which was Daniel he was thrown into the the Lion's Den but there were two there were two parts to what happened there one is that he was saved because of his own because of his own trust in hem but also there was a Salvation and there was a rejoicing on the part of the Jewish people generally call you that's what it means when it says in the the righteous individual rejoices in hm and he trusts in him and then all of those who are straight of heart also give praise says as follows right we're speaking in in this peric about the evil ones the wicked and how they cover up their true intentions and they're ready to shoot at the right individual in the dark in in a place where they won't be seen but they ultimately fall Hashem brings them down we need not be afraid so the righteous individual is excited he's joyous as the wicked ones fall an amazing thing is that the evil individual the wicked individual causes his own downfall through his own speech why do our enem enemies need to speak so much about how they want to destroy the Jewish people how they want to they have all of these weapons ready to go their own speech is what causes their own downfall and so that's a tremendous joy for for the to see a lot of times when we're doing what's right it seems like we might not be successful as a result those who are evil seem to be winning But ultimately when we see the downfall of the wicked so it gives us gives us a boost in our we can trust hm more and all of those who are righteous of heart straight of heart they can Rejoice they can praise their straightness right now that we see that it worked out they can say so if this Revenge if really the word revenge is an interesting word but it's a revelation of truth it's it's Vengeance it's mid it's measure for measure if this was done by Hashem on behalf of the righteous individual K soem certainly if it's done for an individual says certainly it's going to be done for all of us as a nation because as a nation hasm always looks at us generally as we saw previously generally hasm looks at the rim with a more sympathetic eye says the the says he trusts in him again our our is strengthened when we see that Hashem brings about vengeance for us upon our enemies that strengthens and helps us know that hm is taking care of us it's going to work out in the end all those who threaten us they fall they fall and it's going to continue as we rise they fall down the evil ones fall down say right the the righteous individual says he rejoices in God it means he rejoices in the salvation of God and he Trust and when the person sees hm's salvation so it encourages him to trust in hm always and there's a certain sense of satisfaction when we realize that Hashem is is the God we we re we we had that recognition we realize that everything that's going on in the world is from him and there's there's a feeling of joy and and praise praise of God and praise of our our own ASU how lucky we are that we had this Insight says I already explained to you the sometimes hem brings difficulties and challenges upon the righteous so that they will strengthen their belief in Hashem after they get out of the situation of Oppression of difficulty that's why our P says he will rejoice he will rejoice because he's going to get out from Darkness to great light and from then on will trust in him more I'm sorry the sadic will trust in hasem more and those who are straight of heart those who have chosen and continue to try to choose to do the will of Hashem so they will be praised or they will praise themselves or they will praise Hashem because Hashem recognizes or Hashem will praise them right because because Hashem sees the hearts of the righteous and that's what he wants that's what's desired by him says the we said that after brings about the downfall of the wicked so the wicked have their all of their kinds of plans that they wish to do but in the end Hashem instead of the wicked being able to shoot their arrows at the righteous Hashem shoots as it were his Arrow at the wicked right and then everybody sees even those who thought in their mind perhaps I should be wicked as well maybe I can get away with doing wrong things so they have a change of heart they're afraid says the they're afraid now to do their evil ways like the evil ways of their wicked they'll tell each other what we see is that Hashem the way that he be that interacts with humans is measure for measure it's not worth it they were able to recognize in every Matter's ways to protect themselves from God's retribution just like hem did with these Wicked people I don't want to be the recipient of that kind of negative result now it's it's better okay that's that's a certain positive thing that comes out of the fall of the of the wicked and that is that the other people who might have done something wrong may also repent because of their fear but the sadic is on a higher level because the sadic the righteous individual way back when there was no you know he didn't cross his mind that he should do something wrong and therefore and and not only didn't it cross his mind but he also doesn't challenge the fact that it seems like those who are wicked maybe they're doing things in a way which makes them look righteous but he knows what's going on the sadic doesn't challenge the fact that why is hashm allowing this person to get away with it so to speak why do they seem to succeed you to him love he's not waiting for them to get paid back the sadic doesn't doesn't think in his mind well where's where's Justice that's not going on he trusts in hm because hhm is trustworthy thead knows that it's going to work out in a way that all of those who are rightous of heart straight of heart will praise him these are the people who they are straight of heart it means that these are the people who if somebody seems to be getting away with it things seem to be going well for the wicked it doesn't bother them they don't think about it they're not worried about the wicked who have good in this world they know that hem doesn't give up when a person has done something wrong they're going to get paid off for that they're going to get paid back and those who are straight of heart also know that they're going to receive their just reward for not questioning so this is the aspect of of the payment the the I'm sorry the praise of all of those who are straight of heart for this very for this very aspect we're so lucky the righteous will say we didn't we didn't question God so lucky we didn't question God because we see in the end everything worked out correctly everything worked out as it's meant to Hashem is righteous there's nothing to be worried about there was nothing to be worried about and that's an incredible feeling of satisfaction he brings here a beautiful beautiful piece from short a short uh paragraph about a hasem about loving Hashem our relationship with God our love for God person should make his soul hang upon God's love should feel like this is this is what my spirituality is about loving Hashem when a person should trust in God's compassion and is in these are a few different words for compassion and and and and mercy when a person has a feeling of Love forem be careful not to mix it up with a love for anybody else or anything else and when you have a fear of hem you have a sense of a of hem don't allow that awe to be mixed up with awe and fear for anybody or anything else never allow to be out of your thoughts and let not be removed from in front of your eyes yet let Hashem be your company when you're all alone you're sitting out on the mountain sense that Hashem remember that Hashem is there with you sit with you in the wilderness and if you're in a very inhabited place where there's lots of people let it be like there's nobody there just you and Hashem re and if there's nobody there let it be not empty let it be like again is with you don't be afraid when nobody's there with you and don't don't worried when they're not there don't be don't be overwhelmed by a large amount of people and don't be worried when there's nobody there with you always be joyous with hm your God rejoicing in your creator joyous in his will and Desiring to have a have an interaction with him like our says let the sadic rejoice in God and put one's one's faith in him okay two more small pieces and then we'll end when hasem saved Daniel from the mouth of the Lions everybody was able to see everyone was able to know and they were able to trust in hem the the righteous the righteous individual and all those who see his salvation they Rejoice because they know they have upon whom to rely and all those who are straight of heart will praise Hashem last thing from the Mal there's a great joy for the righteous individual when he does that which is right and he trusts him because he sees that hem saves those who trust him and those and and those who are straight of of heart they will be praised in this that they serve Hashem and the fact that they are saved a person feels an incredible satisfaction as as we keep saying by the fact that I trusted in Hashem and I was saved and they praise hashem's name thank you so much for listening we'll see you again next time
