Charles H. Spurgeon on Psalms 68:6

1. Two curable evils: "solitary", "bound with chains."

2. Two rich blessings: "set in families, ""bringeth out."

3. One monster evil, and its miserable consequences.

Verses 7-8.

1. God has his seasons for delivering his people from their troubles: When thou, etc.

2. His deliverance is complete: The earth shook, etc.; all things gave way before him.

3. The deliverance is greater for the delay.

(a) It is so in itself.

(b) It is more prized: as in the case of Job, Abraham, Israel at the Red Sea, Daniel, his three companions, etc. G. R.

Verses 7-9.

1. The presence of God in his church.

(a) His preeminence: "before."

(b) As covenant God of Israel.

(c) As active and making active.

(d) His rule within: they follow.

(e) His design without: marching for war.

2. The blessed consequences.

(a) The most stolid shake.

(b) The lofty bow.

(c) Difficulties removed: "Sinai."

(d) Blessings plenteous.

(e) Church revived.
