Christians are encouraged not to fret over evildoers because their prosperity is temporary and they will ultimately face judgment (Psalm 37:1-2).
In Psalm 37:1-2, believers are admonished not to fret because of evildoers or be envious of their successes. The scripture reassures us that the wicked will soon be cut down like grass and will wither away. This serves as a reminder that God is sovereign and judges righteously. Rather than succumbing to envy and frustration, believers are called to trust in God’s providential care, knowing that He has a plan that extends beyond the temporary situations we observe. The assurance of eternal justice and the futility of the wicked’s prosperity should encourage Christians to maintain their trust in the Lord amid trials.
