The Psalmist is not a rare unique person who spews out poetry wherever he goes. He is someone who has seen more of God than we do. He has seen more of God at work in the situations of life.He has seen more of the nature of God. He is a person whose spirit is in tune with God and His Spirit.
The Psalms are not just chapters of how the Psalmist received comfort from God in His times of trouble. The main theme ringing throughout the Psalms is about the mighty works of God. When the Psalmist talks about his enemies, he does not stop with God passing judgement on his enemies. He continues to mention how God is righteous and just and how He is going to judge wickedness everywhere. He cannot be satisfied with God destroying his enemies but he exults that God's righteous reign is over all. The Psalmist is not just praising God for His righteousness and justice but he is also a person who has tasted of the joy of living in righteousness and justice himself.
