Indescribable Love

Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. O LORD, you preserve both man and beast.

How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings. They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.” (Psalm 36:5-9)

GOD’S LOVE

~It reaches to the heavens! It knows no limits.  We cannot reach up and touch the sky.  Sure we can get on an airplane and fly through the sky,  but even then we’re never able to touch the edge of the sky.  Astronauts go into space to see more of the marvelous creation God has created.  They see the earth from afar and study the galaxy, but yet they do not touch the edge of space.  Are you beginning to grasp God’s indescribable love yet?  David said that God’s love reaches to the heavens.  We cannot even begin to grasp how deep, how wide, and how much God loves us!  He gives us terms that are beyond our comprehension because He wants to make a point, His love will always be greater than our mind can comprehend.

Pursuit for the Truth ~ Psalm 119 Part 6

Keep me from lying to myself; give me the privilege of knowing your instructions. I have chosen to be faithful; I have determined to live by your regulations. I cling to your laws.  Lord, don’t let me be put to shame! I will pursue your commands, for you expand my understanding. (Psalm 119:29-32, NLT)

Yesterday we learned we are revived by God’s Word, we are to use it as a means to reflect on how we conduct our day, God’s Word teaches us about His character, and it will always be there to strengthen us.  Let’s continue into the next phase of Psalm 119.

INSTRUCTION ~ “Keep me from lying to myself…”

The Lord asks us to live by the Truth of His Word every day.  May we not compromise even in the smallest form, but may way see it as a privilege to know His Word.  His Word provides the instruction on life and when we follow it we can live life to the fullest.  May we ask God to reveal even the slightest lie that we may be hiding behind, so that we can be fully revealed in God’s Truth.  The Truth will set us free and there’s nothing better than living in the freedom of God.

Delightful Wisdom ~ Psalm 119 Part 4

You rebuke the proud and arrogant, the accursed ones, who err and wander from Your commandments.  Take away from me reproach and contempt, for I keep Your testimonies.  Princes also sat and talked against me, but Your servant meditated on Your statutes.  Your testimonies also are my delight and my counselors. (Psalm 119:21-24, AMP)

Getting back to the heart of Psalm 119.  The test yesterday was ugly from a human perspective, but as I watched God turn things around all I could do was smile.  God was winning!  He always wins!  He is VICTORIOUS!  Whenever you doubt this and think someone or something is going to get the best of you, go to the Word of God and find the many times that God has been faithful to those who walk righteously before Him.  He does not leave us defenseless.  He always comes through for us!  Even in this part of Psalm 119, I can see that God’s timing is perfect.
