PSALM 94

THE LORD WILL NOT FORSAKE HIS PEOPLE

This anonymous psalm calls upon God’s wrath and judgment for those who are wicked. This psalmist prays for God’s vengeance upon those who have been evil towards God’s people. 

Although this psalm portrays God as intense and vindictive, it also notes that those who are disciplined by God are blessed. The author points out that God’s wrath is for those who are evil, while His corrective discipline is for the benefit of His people. God amends the ways of those He loves but rebukes and punishes those who oppose Him. 

Psalm 94:15 - For the LORD will not forsake his people; for justice will return to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.
