Not much has changed since the days of Asaph. Corruption reigns and many will follow. “Open my eyes so I may see” is my prayer choosing good not evil.
Psalm 73 deals with how the righteous respond to corruption within the ranks of wealth, power and influence. Initially, the good man or woman is scandalized by the revelation that leaders are abusing the power of their privileges. But as Asaph reflects on the nature of God, he comes to understand that even the most powerful authority figures, if corrupt and unchanged (unrepentant), will receive their reward at the hands of the Lord.
