Our hearts should not be puffed up in anything, because when we begin to envy the prosperity of the wicked, our hearts will also fail before God. If you do not turn from that path in time, then, just as the wicked falls into the abyss, you too will fall.
The destiny of the evil man is because this being always exalts himself and humiliates others, and his thoughts continually go to evil. But those with a pure heart will be blessed and will be right before the Lord, and their feet will not slip.
This psalm is by Asaph, an author who presents the judgment that can come to the wicked man and those who follow in his footsteps.
Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
Psalm 73:1
In this writing, Asaph makes a statement about how good God is and His great kindness to the people of Israel and to those with a pure heart. The Lord actively displays His kindness to His people.
As servants of the Lord, we must always keep in mind that our God loves people with pure hearts and blesses those who keep His word in their hearts. But all those wicked who prosper and do harm will soon face judgment and be consumed.
Turn your eyes away from the riches of the wicked, turn your heart away from the great prosperity of those who are conceited, because their path will not last long, because God is certainly good to us.
