Psalm 30:1-12 I will extol you, O LORD; for you have lifted me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.… Though believers in Christ may not be lifted up like the psalmist in a temporal point of view, yet they are all, like him, lifted up in a spiritual point of view. 1. Above all danger from the wrath to come. 2. To the enjoyment and possession of spiritual life. 3. To a place in God's graciously adopted family. 4. Above all fatal evil from enemies, whether of a temporal or spiritual description. 5. To the hope of a safe death, a blessed resurrection, and a joyful eternity. (T. Adam.)
