Psalms 72:9

His enemies shall lick the dust.

The enemies of Christ subdued

I. Who are the enemies of Christ?

1. Those who maintain sentiments contrary to the Gospel of Christ.

2. Those who endeavour to subvert His influence over His people’s hearts.

3. Those who refuse submission to His Gospel.

II. What will be the result of the conflict?

1. Over some He will triumph by His grace.

2. But those who reject all His overtures of mercy “He will break in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”

III. What assurance we have that such shall be the issue of the conflict.

1. His own resistless power.

2. His unimpeachable veracity. (Evangelical Preacher.)
