TAKE 5–MAY 10, 2017

May 11, 2017 by beardonnam Leave a Comment

How happy are those whose way is blameless, who live according to the Lord ’s instruction! Happy are those who keep His decrees and seek Him with all their heart. I have treasured Your word in my heart so that I may not sin against You. Open my eyes so that I may contemplate wonderful things from Your Law. Lord , Your word is forever; it is firmly fixed in heaven. Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path.
Psalms 119:1‭-‬2‭, ‬11‭, ‬18‭‭, ‬89‭, ‬105

Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible. Tradition holds that it was written by King Favid to teach his son the “ABC’s” (in other words to teach him to read) as well as to teach him the “ABC’s” of life. EVERY verse of Psalm 119 are about God’s Word. Here are a few examples:
Vs 1-2 •happy are those whose way is blameless •happy are those who live according to the Lord’s instruction
•happy are those who keep His decrees
• happy are those who seek Him with all their heart
Vs 11• I have treasured Your word in my heart so that I may not sin against You
Vs 18 • Open my eyes so that I may contemplate wonderful things from Your Law
Vs 89 •Your word is forever; it is firmly fixed in heaven
Vs 105 •Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path

Sooo, God’s Word provides happiness, curbs sin, shows us wide-eyed wonderful things, is heaven’s devoted consistency, and is a light to guide us down the path of life!
We live in the wealthiest nation on earth and our literacy levels are higher than anytime in history! The Bible is readily availible, via the Internet, in ANY language and translation to ALL of us at ANY moment of the day! With promised results like these and accessibility like this, why would we NOT read and pay attention to God’s Word?
Think about it!
