In When the Foundations Crumble (Psalms 11–12), Stephen Davey addresses how believers should respond when society’s moral and spiritual foundations seem to be collapsing. David’s question, “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” becomes the framework for five truths about God’s unchanging nature. First, God remains undisturbed in His sovereignty—He reigns from His throne, unshaken by the chaos of earth. Second, He is fully aware of everything that happens, closely watching both righteousness and wickedness. Third, God is just in rejecting unrepentant sinners; His holiness demands judgment. Fourth, His justice is terrifying, for He will one day pour out righteous wrath on the wicked. Finally, God delights in His righteous people, promising that the upright will one day behold His face. Davey encourages believers not to despair at cultural decay but to look up in faith—trusting in the Lord’s perfect rule, resting in His justice, and finding joy in the assurance that He still reigns over every crumbling foundation.
