The "imprecatory" psalms - the psalms of anger against injustice - are rarely read or preached on in church. This is unfortunate because they are a gift: Spirit-inspired words to voice righteous indignation about the very real evils in the world.

These psalms allow us to do this, with humility (recognizing our own sinfulness), and to give our anger to God to handle it in his way and his time. Scriptures Used: Psalm 58 and Romans 12:14-21 Rev. Chris Andrews

They are God’s language for calling out our souls. Scriptures used: Psalm 1:1-6; Matthew 7:12-29 Rev. Dr. Jonathan Tagg
