Reflections From a Murky Pond

Imprecatory Prayer is simply when one prays to their God(s) that their enemies be cursed.

Imprecatory Prayer has been at or near the forefront of the Liberal MSM of late. This is because people are making imprecatory prayers to the Christians’ God about President Obama and this scares and outrages President Obama’s followers.

The particular imprecation that has President Obama’s followers outraged is Psalms 109:8

Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

— Psalms 109:8, the Bible( KJV)

President Obama’s followers, the Liberals in general, and the Godless have been much enraged by this carefully “cherry picked” verse of the Bible. They’ve been quite quick to point out that it is not necessarily just a prayer for President Obama’s removal from office, but also a call for his utter destruction. The verses of Psalm 109 that follow the one commonly depicted bear out their claim.

Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labor.

Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.

Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.

Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

— Psalms 109:9-15, the Bible( KJV)

Of a certainty this is a harsh curse to pray for and wish upon President Obama and the scions of his blood. Is it anything more than Obama deserves? I would say not, but I’m not sanguine about wishing that much harm upon his children who have done no wrong.

I do, however, find it ironically amusing that Obama followers and the Liberals in general are bothered by such things. They are, by and large, Godless – accept for their quasi-worship of Obama – and supposedly place no credence in the efficacy of prayer. Why should they be concerned about people praying to a God – one that they mostly don’t believe in – to curse Obama and his kin?
