Ps. 75: God is Just

Psalm 75:8 "In the hand of the LORD is a cup full of foaming wine mixed with spices; he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth drink it down to its very dregs."

The 75th Psalm recounts God's justice and judgement. Interesting that even though the judgement may not be in Israel's favor...ok, it's not in Israel's favor...Asaph still lifts thanks and praise to God. Wonderful deeds. 

God chooses his own timing. Just when the world is about to shatter, God holds the pillars firm. Without God, it just seems like everything, all of creation would fall apart. I get the sense that God doesn't set it and forget it, he is actively involved in holding everything together. Quite the multitasker. I wonder then if matter would cease to be if God were removed? Must be. 

Also from this Psalm, it is reinforced that even though people may choose leaders for themselves, it is ultimately God who puts that person in power. He removes, and he exalts.

Verse 8 is rather cryptic. God pours a cup of wine on the earth and the wicked drink it down to the dregs. A "dreg" or "the dregs" is the sediment in wine. Its like in Kool-Aid, when you got that powdery mixture at the bottom. It isn't very good. So the wicked consume that. They drink it all. They overconsume? Is what God has poured out here similar to the riches that the arrogant rich enjoy for their brief time on the earth? The riches they enjoy are as God's dregs. Nothing. The rubbish. Thoughts?
