The wicked bend their bows, the foundations feel destroyed, and everyone around David has a reasonable-sounding answer: flee. Psalm 11 plants its feet against that pressure, asking whether the upheaval surrounding the righteous actually means what it looks like it means.

You wrangled with the devil, riding a deer. Son, there ain't nothing left for you out here. That tractor stuttered in the worn-out hills until the ground won't keep no roof over me.
Well, yeah. I felt the backstab's cold metal jab my empty silos just a turn. I faced everything. Been kicked down. My dirt-stained boots don't know the year I fled. I fell but I ain't drowned.
My truck broke down along Route 34. Old boys drove by to laugh with haughty roar. The ancient foe punched hard on that shoulder, whispered they'll tell the town you flopped again.
Well, yeah. Felt the backstab's cold metal jab my empty silos just a turn. I faced everything. Been kicked down. I ain't high-tailing off this ground. My dirt-stained boots don't know the year I fled. I fell but I ain't drowned 'cause I met God out in a weedy field.
So, but the white hat is watching from the ledge. That wily snake deceives ain't got no witch. His posse will land under a heap of coals. I'd rather suffer now than join their feet.
Well, yeah. I walked the ashes of my home, felt the backstab's cold metal jab my empty silos just a turn. I faced everything. Been kicked down. My dirt-stained boots don't know the year I fled. I fell but I ain't drowned 'cause I met God out in a weedy field.
Wrangled with the devil, deer. I said to him, there ain't nothing left for you.
Reality is an interesting thing. The lack thereof is interesting too, isn't it? We spend a lot of time contemplating what is real.
I was reading about an actress that just signed with a major talent firm this week: Tilly Norwood. Anyone heard of Tilly Norwood? I'd never heard of Tilly Norwood. Jeff has, okay, so he's keeping up on the latest movers and shakers in Hollywood. She comes from London, and I read a little bit about what she likes. She loves to drink iced coffee. She enjoys going and sitting for interviews talking about her passion for movies—all these sorts of things. And she even stars on a little comedic skit that's going viral on the internet about casting stars. Appropriate way to start, I suppose.
There's only one issue with Tilly. Tilly doesn't exist. And the reason that people are talking about Tilly is the fact that she—if this is all as it seems to be—is the first AI actress to be signed by a talent agency: someone who doesn't exist. Her likeness doesn't exist. Her voice doesn't exist. Someone who does not exist who is allegedly going to star in things. And so, for example, to present how she could do that, there's a video of her sitting on the couch of some famous TV talk show in England, sitting there crying over a memory that she's sharing like an actress might do—as she's kind of making the rounds, trying to gain traction in the industry—except that she's sitting on a virtual couch because there's no real person to sit on the couch.
Even the coverage that went viral about her is a bunch of AI people talking about an AI person. None of it's real. Kind of interesting when you think about that because it feels real, it seems real—a little cheesy, but there's lots of things that are real and cheesy, right? That's not necessarily untrue. I'm good at cheesiness, so you know, real can be cheesy. But this isn't. Right?
I was thinking about that as we were coming to the end of Psalm 11, some of the things that Dusty was talking about there—about the things that we face, which are really just a countrified version of what David's talking about that we face in Psalm 11: the opposition that we face, the seeming victory of evil that we face.
You know what else doesn't seem real a lot of times? Righteousness, or at least the triumph of it. And I think the more that we spend time in life watching how righteousness seems to often not have the upper hand, but the opposite thereof, the more it feels like righteousness is actually a fiction itself. It’s no realer than Tilly sitting on that couch because, just like Tilly doesn't exist on that couch, we can talk about how righteousness triumphs and does all these things, but you're never going to be able to sit on that couch and actually talk to Tilly.
We wonder if we're ever going to experience victory—God's righteous victory. But where Psalm 11 lands, it doesn't land in promising us that everything is good right now, that you can just do these three easy steps and you'll feel the victorious Christian life today. Wouldn't it be great if I could tell you that? It doesn't say that. It says, but God is the one who secures it. He is the one who makes the promise. And so, because He does, even though it doesn't feel like it's here right now, it really is.
So wherever we're feeling like maybe righteousness and God's righteous victory is a bit more of a fiction than a reality right now, let's pray as we come to Him in His word tonight. We see how real it is—not because it's going to be that you walk out that door and you feel it right now, but because it's real, because God is unstoppable.
Let's pray.
Father, we do come before You as those who often struggle trying to figure out how to make sense of life, how to make sense of the promises You have. We see things crumble around us. Sometimes it's natural disasters, or at least not anything malicious—a house fire, that sort of thing. Sometimes it's the actual opposition of others. Sometimes it's disease. Sometimes it just seems utterly random. But Lord, there are an awful lot of times that Your righteous victory feels no more touchable, no more reachable than some AI figure. But Lord, would You assure us of Your reality and the reality of what You're doing tonight? We pray in Jesus' precious name. Amen.
Here's where the psalm lands. We're going to start with that and then fill it all in. We're going to reread the whole psalm. It's not very long, so we're going to reread the whole thing. And as we do, let's be watching for this: that it all depends on one thing, which is that God is righteous. Everything else is true—the things that go wrong, they're true—but we start and we end in that same place looking to our God, and that is what pulls everything together.
So, in the Lord I take refuge. You can turn to Psalm 11 if you'd like. Psalm 11 verse 1: “In the Lord I take refuge. How can you say to my soul, 'Flee like a bird to your mountain'? For behold, the wicked bend the bow; they have fitted their arrow to the string to shoot in the darkness at the upright in heart. If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do? The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord's throne is in heaven; his eyes see; his eyelids test the children of man. The Lord tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence.” Let him rain coals on the wicked; fire and sulfur and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup. “The Lord is righteous. He loves righteous deeds. The upright shall behold his face.”
It starts and ends in the same place. Starts and ends with the Lord. And it's notable that, as we looked a couple weeks ago when we started this psalm, it begins with David declaring who the Lord is for him, and then saying what everyone else is saying about his situation: the foundations are shaken. The righteous can't stand in this situation. So if the foundations are shaken, run, David, run.
But David begins, “In the Lord I take refuge,” and he concludes in the same place: “For the Lord is righteous; He loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold His face.”
What we'd like the answer to the psalm to be is, okay, here are these things that are going wrong in my life. Here's what's broken here—the people that are doing ill to me, mocking me, here's the circumstances that are tearing me apart. And here's what God says about how I just need to do this, and boom, it's all taken care of. No problem. That's what I want.
And David's like, okay, I'm not going to do this. But I want—and David's friends, because they're also looking for that when everything's coming apart, they say, “Run, because the very foundations are shaken, David. You're a follower of the Lord and everything's going wrong.” If everything's going wrong and you follow the Lord, the only thing you can do is try to escape with your life. Get out of here.
I'm not telling him to go because they don't care about him. They don't love him. They're telling him that because they do love him, and they want him out of harm's way. But see, the problem with that question is it presumes the things of this world are what the foundations of the righteous are. It presumes that our worldly success, our worldly ease and comfort—these are the things that are our foundations. And if we're shaking on top of those things, our ease is coming apart, our success is coming apart, our health is coming apart, our understanding of whatever we're dealing with is coming apart, that if these things are coming apart, then it must be that the foundations are coming apart.
But verse 7 says, “But that's not the foundation at all.” David doesn't deny that evil is triumphing in this moment, that there are those who are doing wicked that are succeeding. But he denies that that means the foundations are shaking. That's a key difference.
It's one of the reasons why we should flee and encourage people to flee when we hear people preaching in the name of Jesus who say if you just do anything, any… insert this thing, this will no longer be a problem for you, right? You just make the right donation, you'll get the prayer cloth, you'll be healed—and that's sort of the obvious one. But we do it in more subtle ways all the time, and we should guard ourselves against that too because it ends up setting up this idea, well, that's the thing that we measure our security by.
Does David want to suffer? He doesn't want to suffer. But David says what I really need to look to, what really tells me if the foundations are shaken or not, this is the Lord. They are not because if He is, foundations aren't shaking; everything I've put on top of the foundation—that's shaking. When our foundations are shaking, it doesn't show that our foundation in God is unreliable. It shows that we have the wrong foundation, and it's not in God.
Now, God being our foundation doesn't mean everything goes well all the time, but we understand that He's unshakable even as we shake. I think that's the helpful thing in Psalm 11 because it gives us the reality rather than the fiction.
There's lots of fictional Christian living that's written—not intended to be fiction—that says it's not the case that you really can just do certain things and God will automatically pour out blessings. And yes, if you trust Him, He'll pour out the blessing of being a child of God, and He'll redeem you—that is absolutely true. But when we go on and then say, “And He'll provide you with a steady income. He'll provide you with a house that's exactly what you want. He'll make everything go smoothly with your friends and your family,” it doesn't actually say that.
Indeed, if we follow God's wisdom, a lot of times things will go better because He's telling us how it's intended to do, how it's intended to go. But that's sort of like maintaining your car, right? You take care of the car, you change the oil, you do the other recommended service. If someone goes careening into the rear end of you, it's still going to crash. You don't say, “I can't believe the back of my car is all dented up. I changed the oil last week.” Right? We don't do that.
And that's sort of how we approach it with God, right? I pray every day. I do my devotionals. I go to church. I go to Bible study. I even stop sometimes when a coworker looks like he or she's having a hard time, and I pray with that person—and yeah, everything's not going right in my life.
What we're called to do is not say, okay, how can I evaluate all the situations in my life and decide if there's righteousness? It's can I look to the Lord and understand there's righteousness?
It's interesting, of all the people to get this—at least for one moment—the Pharaoh got this. Exodus 9:27: Then Pharaoh sent and called Moses and Aaron and said to them, “This time I have sinned, and the Lord is in the right, and I and my people are in the wrong.”
Now, God hasn't done anything for him in that moment yet, but Pharaoh is saying, you know, things are going really badly, and I've realized something: that I'm not really the one who's always right. At least that's what he says. But notably, if you know the story of the Exodus, he doesn't really believe that—at least not in any deep sense. Maybe he believes it in the moment, he believes that God's the righteous one in that moment, but he also believes that he has the right to go back to what he wants to do, and God judges him.
And time 11 says that will come. For Pharaoh, it came in the moment, right? He's chasing the Israelites out of Egypt, and the sea closes upon his armies. There's immediate judgment; that we don't normally see; it doesn't normally happen that way. And in that moment the Israelites are ecstatic. “Wow God, look what You did! This is so great!” And then they go back to, “But wait a second here. Everything isn't exactly how I dreamed it would be. I'm out here in this wilderness. The menu leaves something terribly big to be desired.”
I looked on Yelp and everyone's turning and rating the manna really low these days. It's just not what we're hungry for.
I think that's sort of telling too of how we interact with God's judgment. God brings immediate realized judgment here. Immediate realized judgment here. It comes on Egypt in the moment—the plagues, the closing of the Red Sea—and in opposition to that, the opening of the Red Sea and the escorting of the Israelites out. So they're safe—all that's true.
And how long does it take to say, “Well, but God, now things still aren't quite how I hoped”? You see even when God does actually intersect with the goings-on of the world and does something we're not satisfied for very long. We're satisfied for a little while but not for very long. If our measure of God's presence with us and the ultimate victory is tied to what's going on in this moment, He'll rescue us and then we'll complain about the food. He'll rescue us and then we'll complain about the fact that He chose Moses to lead us out, or that it seems like yes, He's giving us what He promised but Joe Canaanite's doing a lot better on his farm next door. I have enough; he has more.
And so even when God comes in the moment, we're not satisfied.
So the psalm is redirecting us to say, well, what is it that we really should be satisfied with? What is it that we really should be satisfied about? And why does God sometimes intersect with this world in the moment if we're not going to be satisfied anyway?
Well, it really comes down to that—He's giving us a preview.
David, as we talked about last week as he's talking about judgment, refers back to the judgment of Sodom and Gomorrah. There was a preview. Right? There was a time where God said, “Okay, I'm going to bring judgment right now into this world. You can see how righteous and holy I am. I won't tolerate this.” But He did that for Sodom and Gomorrah. He didn't do that for everywhere. He could have done it everywhere at once, but He doesn't so that we start to get the flavor. We start to understand that yes, He is righteous, and we ought to make sure that our foundation's in the right place.
We should do that now, even if right now there are hot coals raining down if He's just on the ledge with his white hat looking down at the day that He will provide rescue. It's just a preview.
I think though, I know for myself at times, we've all seen those previews, right? We've seen times where God does not allow evil to stand, and we see that preview. But then we think, “Well, maybe it was just a fluke. Maybe it's not real,” or we see God working, we see righteousness seeming to well up, and we think, “But maybe it was just a coincidence; maybe it's not real.” That's what I was thinking about this psalm.
I found myself looking back to the Asbury revival. Do you remember that a couple years ago? Anyone remember the Asbury revival? Asbury College had this chapel service. It was just supposed to be an ordinary chapel service, and then the Holy Spirit seemed to be really moving in that service, and people didn't want to leave and they sang another song, and then it started to spread around campus. Hours after it was supposed to start, there were more people coming and worshiping the Lord, and it kept going, and that goes into day two, day three, day four, day five. It was for almost two weeks.
People say, “Wow! Revival is going to come to our land.” And there was talk about, “Is there going to be revival on other campuses? Is it just going to spread all over the place?”
But what struck me on that was, as I thought about it this week, I thought, “Well, I wonder what happened with it.” I knew that the actual chapel services had ended, but did then we just all move on? I haven't heard anyone even mention it in years now.
It's amazing how thousands of people say, “I am so on fire for Jesus. I just want to be here and praise Him.” I mean, isn't that… I would love to see that someday next door at Linda with it—that we're looking over there—we just see people pouring into the campus because everyone wants to go on that campus and worship God, and they don't want to leave the chapel—that the chapel doors are open again and they're filled, and people are praising God. That'd be so amazing. But you want to know that it's more than for a week or two. It's amazing, and involves thousands of people, but then it's over.
Well, it's really not that much more real than Tilly Norwood. Just an illusion.
I read a comment from the president of Asbury: “So, as president of the university, I'm frequently asked about Asbury's campus in the wake of February 2023. What are things like now? Are students more scriptural? Have we seen changes?”
Here's the beautiful part. He says the answer is yes. There is a blessed and encouraging spiritual residue evident throughout our campus. However, I'm always quick to encourage people to broaden their outlook across the United States and across the world. And entirely consistent with the Religious Landscape Survey, I believe the next generation is poised for something different.
I love how he reflects on that. Can you drive on to Asbury's campus today and say, “Okay, where's the revival?” No.
It wouldn't have been beautiful—that were the beginning of when the saints around the world just sing praises to God for all eternity. I just never stopped ever again. There's just praise going on over and over again. It would have been.
But the fact that people go on and go to class, and graduate, and go to work, and move on, and so on, doesn't mean that the revival wasn't true. That God isn't working. His righteousness isn't welling up. And a key thing here is he says, “Well, look at what's happening in the world in general.” And it's actually even more true now than it was when he wrote this: some more recent data suggests that for the first time in memorable history, we see that the generation just going through college and graduating and starting to go into the workforce now is more likely to go to church than the previous generation.
They're looking. Gen Z's looking.
Does it mean there's going to be a massive revival? Does it mean every church that has empty pews and empty chairs no longer will? Does it mean that we're going to need to tell the landlord, “We have to buy this whole building because we have to knock down the walls and put in a thousand chairs”? Does it mean that? Well, that'd be amazing, wouldn't it? But it doesn't necessarily mean that.
It might be another preview. It might be that Gen Alpha thereafter doesn't go to church as often, and if our foundation is… We've been praying, and now we see more people going to church and wanting to go to church and asking questions about spiritual things, and we see that, and so therefore, what does that mean? It means that God is working. It's so good that that's happening because that means that God's working, and then in 15 or 20 years, if it's not happening in that moment, our foundation is going to feel shaken.
But David's journey through the psalm isn't to say, “When I can see everything is going well, I know the foundations aren't shaken.” He sees, he says, “I can see God, and so I know the foundations aren't shaken.”
It enables us to keep praying. It enables us, when there's the residue of God working in a particular area but we don't see an outright fire burning with the Holy Spirit in that moment, that we don't despair—but we rather say, “What's God setting up for next? What was that a preview of? Maybe it's just a preview of someday when Jesus returns. And maybe He's setting up something bigger to do in that moment.”
But here's the real deal: God is working. He's not an AI.
What do we have going on here? Let's see here… that feels like it's in there. Yeah, that's a very real cable, um, acting in a very real way. God is working. He's not an AI figure on a couch sitting there crying AI tears, and His words are AI words generated to make Him the next big movie star, and His victory isn't generated from some figment.
It struck me with Tilly Norwood that no matter how successful she is—even her creator, the person who's trying to create these figures and sell them to Hollywood—has a bit of a challenge because Tilly's words aren't written by a human being; they're written by AI as well.
And if you play with AI sometimes it puts out stuff that's really good, and sometimes it doesn't. And I thought, here's someone who's trying to build a whole business on not only the appearance and the sound of someone created but the very thoughts this alleged person has are being created by a machine. That tomorrow the company-making machine could turn off, and then can you recapture her person? And then can you recapture her personality? Maybe, maybe not.
It's just sort of there and gone, and it's not a residue; then it's just an evaporation. It's gone.
But when God's righteousness breaks into this world and we see a revival, or the wicked not prevailing, it's not so that we put our hope in that because they're going to pass—sort of like Tilly does. Everything that we count on in this world will. We can't regenerate our health. We can't often even regenerate our job.
But the foundation that doesn't change—God, the Lord Himself—and we look to Him and we say, “But He's the one that's ultimately bringing everything that's real into this world.”
Okay. So where does that leave us?
Because we've talked over and over again that we're not the righteous, right? We're sinners. We told us in the confession and assurance earlier, we have something to confess every week, right? You might say, “Well, why do we need to have a confession time every single week?” Well, because if we're conscious long enough to get in the doors, we've been sinners that are falling short of the mercy of our God, the standard of our God.
The only thing is God's mercy extends further when we think further so that we're never truly out of the region.
I like when we take that time for silent confession because it does give us some time to bring whatever specific things the Spirit brings to our minds. But we can safely say there's always something we should be bringing to Him.
And so even if God's reality is the realest thing ever, and there's that victory in Him, the next question is, well, can I actually access it?
That's the second part of what David is contemplating here.
Let's look again at verse 7: “For the Lord is righteous; He loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold His face.”
What's real is that God and His victory are real, but what's also real is that God loves the righteous.
And notably David here has the expectation, because again, he's saying, “I'm not going to flee. The Lord is my refuge,” that he falls into that category. And yet David was a sinner. His sins are well recorded in Scripture—not even all of them. I mean, there's the thing you think about it—we hear about what David does that's really big and bad—but David also did day-to-day bad things, just like we do.
So, how can he say, “I take refuge in this reality that doesn't always feel like it's right here in this moment, but it's here”? How can I do that?
What really comes out of the question “Who is righteous?” that's implied here.
First, that's why it's so important the way this psalm is laid out. David turns to Him, and the righteous person—how do we get to be righteous? We turn to the Lord. We turn to Him.
When things are breaking down, when the foundations do feel shaken, we say, “Is this the foundation I need to be looking at or am I actually looking at the wrong place? I need to be looking at His face and redirect my gaze.” And that's what David's doing here in real time as he's going through this situation. He says, “Okay, I see the problems, and I hear people saying these problems are going to overcome you, but I'm going to look to the Lord.”
And he goes on to—what we would today call the Christian life. Jesus hasn't come yet here, but it's the same basic thing for the faithful followers of God throughout the ages.
Verse 5, we looked at last week: “The Lord tests the righteous.” What does He do? He accepts His test. He accepts His sanctifying work in His life—the idea that, okay, I'm not there yet. And I accept that God's going to examine me. But here's what I'm going to do when God examines me: I'm going to believe that God actually cares about me because He does.
So you look to the Lord. You hold on to Him, and you rejoice in the fact that He's working in your life even when it means sitting in an uncomfortable situation. Even when it means dwelling in the midst of testing because the key thing—that's the beautiful thing about the expectation of testing here—is it is expecting that that's what God does for those whom He loves.
And we do all that, and we hold on to that not because of some way to materialize that victory in this moment, to make it fully tangible and touchable in this moment in a way that we can say, “I'm walking out this door, and everything that I carried in here is gone now that was bad.” I want to say everything—that'd be really bad—but everything bad has just vanished. We can't say that, but rather that we can walk out that door knowing that we can keep looking to Jesus, and that He will ultimately be victorious and allow us to behold His face.
Now it comes down to believing in what we can't yet see that God is doing.
And that's the story over and over and over and over and over again in Scripture, and God gives us that story over and over and over again because we all find ourselves in those wildernesses. We all find ourselves out there with people saying, “The foundations are crumbling under your feet. Get out,” and we all find us seeking after the Lord and not actually feeling like we can yet realize what it is that we were hoping for.
Back in Genesis 15, what are we told about Abraham? “And he believed the Lord, and he counted it to him as righteousness.” Abraham did this about that promise of descendants before he had a descendant. Abraham does this before he can see the promised land becoming his.
Author of Hebrews reflects on this in Hebrews 11 verse 8: “By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out not knowing where he was going. By faith he went to live in the land of promises, in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city that has foundations whose designer and builder is God.”
There were a lot of times that Abraham started to believe that the foundations were shaken, and we see some of Abraham's sin come out of that, right? But how did Abraham keep going? Because in God's grace, as God was working in his life, Abraham kept looking at the foundation that isn't shaken, the city that is to come. And it's the same thing that we're called to do.
And if we see Abraham and Abraham never sees the fulfillment of the very promise given to him—he sees parts of it, but he doesn't see a fully fledged functioning nation of descendants with people as vast as the sand on the seashore. He doesn't see that. He just sees a little preview—a little revival, a little justice.
But he sees the Lord.
What's the real reward that we should be seeking? It's not wrong to ask God for the different blessings that we yearn for that are good and pleasing to Him, to ask for it. It doesn't—it's not bad if we ask for peace or we ask for a job when we need a job or a place to live or a resolution of a conflict, or any of these other things that we might ask.
What we need to remember is that the real reward isn't those things; it's seeing Him. It's not a revival happening on a college campus; it’s people seeing Him.
And here's the thing we can say with confidence: I don't know if a single additional person will ever believe in Jesus because of what happened at the Asbury revival. But what I do know is that those who believe, who trust in their Savior, there, they have the reward of seeing Jesus.
And if you haven't yet trusted in Jesus, but you trust tonight and you say, “I'm tired of the foundations that break down all around me. I want that foundation that Abraham was looking at—the city that You're talking about that doesn't break down.” Your reward will be to see Jesus.
David here doesn't say, “For the Lord is righteous, and He thwarts every evil plan in the moment. For indeed, as I get up in the morning, I see that all evil has fallen. Every bad thing has stopped.” Doesn't say that.
It says: “For the Lord is righteous; He loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold His face.”
The ultimate reward, the ultimate solution to our problems is that when we die or when Jesus returns, whichever happens first, we will see Him. We'll see His face. We will experience what it means to look at our God's very glory and see in His face love, His care for us—something that doesn't shake, something that never crumbles, something that isn't just illusory or temporary but permanent.
All of us are going to have shaky foundations in this world of different sorts—the different things we trust—and we all want to trust in things that don't survive.
But what we're told here is that we have the option to look at something else—not that everything is right in the moment, not that we can escape everything that we would like to escape—I think we could all probably think of something we'd like to put in that box. “This is what I'd like to escape, God.” It's okay to pray and bring that to Him.
But as we do, and even if He answers in the affirmative on that, what He's saying is, “But don't make that your foundation because the solution will fail you at some point, too. Make Me your foundation. You want to face everything? Well, to face everything, we don't escape it. We face God in the midst of it.”
And that's a promise that will not be shaken. Would you pray with me, please?
Father we do pray that You would help us to be those who face everything through the God whom we can meet wherever we are. It could be a weedy field, it could be a broken-down shoulder of a road, it could be in a cubicle as we find out we're not getting a promotion. It could be as we hold a phone and hear a disheartening diagnosis. It'd be right here in a chair right now in this church. We're at the desk or the chair that we're sitting in as we're on the live stream.
What You assure us, Lord, is as we turn to You, we will find You. And that, yes, the foundations of the things that we trust in, the things we wish could be fixed right now—those are the things that we trust in and they will feel shaky, and they will be shaky.
Feel shaky, and they will be shaky.
As we look to You, we find a better foundation, a better city, a better home—one that will never laugh, never fail, and never fade away.
