I
wait in silence for you, O God;
from
you comes my salvation.
What
is your kingdom like?
It
is not full of demonic spirits
that
go abroad to seed oppression,
that
do not listen to your voice,
or
accept correction, or trust
in
you, or draw near to you.
Your
kingdom is like a tiny
seed
that grows into a tree,
and
the birds build nests in it.

Selected Verses
Ps. 62:1
For God alone my soul waits in silence;from him comes my salvation.
Zeph. 3:1-2
Ah, soiled, defiled,
oppressing city!
It has listened to no voice;
it has accepted no correction.
It has not trusted in the LORD;
it has not drawn near to its God.
oppressing city!
It has listened to no voice;
it has accepted no correction.
It has not trusted in the LORD;
it has not drawn near to its God.
Rev. 16:14
These are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad
to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day
of God the Almighty.
Luke 13:18-19
[Jesus] said therefore, "What is the kingdom of God
like? And to what should I compare it?
It is like a mustard seed that
someone took and sowed in the garden; it grew and became a tree, and the birds
of the air made nests in its branches."
