Ps 94 11 The LORD knows the thoughts of man;
he knows that they are futile."
In Gods government all opposition is brought to powerlessness. This is a universal curse that provides the success of Gods authority over all governments. The problem that the Psalmist is addressing in this Psalm is the frustration of Gods people who do not know as God knows about His daily activity to overcome mans rebellion in storing up judgement so that He can bless His people with their profits.13 you grant him relief from days of trouble,
till a pit is dug for the wicked.14 For the LORD will not reject his people;he will never forsake his inheritance. *the principle of Gods covenant love to use the world) 20 Can a corrupt throne be allied with you-one that brings on misery by its decrees? 23 He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness;the LORD our God will destroy them." Gods curses are always more destructive than we could imagine. Because Gods pronouncements are more authoritative than our failures. This is the struggle that Gods elect must overcome in order to be at peace. 19" When anxiety was great within me,your consolation brought joy to my soul."

He is describing the experience of Gods elect in coming to rest. He is saying that we are able to rise up to the line of blessing and cursing in order to experience Gods faithful promise in the covenant to never leave us or forsake us. 14 For the LORD will not reject his people;he will never forsake his inheritance.
15 Judgment will again be founded on righteousness,and all the upright in heart will follow it." In other words when judgement and righteousness come together then we experience security. But we know that that it is only in the future state that we will see this come together in the absolute sense. But the bible teaches that it has already been obtained by Christ. The law has been established and the voice of the curse is yea and amen. The principle of blessing follows us at all times.
The Psalmist is saying that these Psalms are yea and amen. In other words they cannot return void. The world treats Gods word with impunity. Any man who opposes the pronouncement of these Psalms( the principle way that we obtain success) is gonna reduced to nothing in their opposition. 11 The LORD knows the thoughts of man;he knows that they are futile." When we oppose men with these Psalms we find that our opposition is reduced to powerlessness. These words of God seem to be foolishness to those who are brought to futility. Any man who opposes us in these words will oppose God. He is saying that we find rest in Gods final pronouncements.
