The Word Of The Lord Is Forever – Psalm 119.89-96

9/18/2020

0 Comments

 
 every situation and circumstance in life if we are willing to search, listen and apply it to our life.
      But more amazing than this is God’s faithfulness towards us. He was faithful in giving us His Word, and faithful in creating this world we live in. I know you are probably thinking, “Why did He not create a better one, one without all this pain and suffering?” Great question, and the answer is, “He did!” However, in the garden man disobeyed God and sin came into the world. Because of sin we have the world we see today (Genesis 3). Paul writes, “For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now” (Romans 8.20-22, NASB95).[2] The whole world is waiting for God to make things right and God’s faithfulness endures until the end, He will make all things right.
      The Word of God is final, it will last forever. This is important to remember, not because it is God’s Word, but because God’s Word will give you the strength to make it through each day. God’s Word is the very life you need to survive your walk through the cruel world. It’s not just reading God’s Word, but delighting in It. You must want to read it, meditate on it and place it within your heart. The Psalmist said, “I will never forget your precepts,” (Psalm 119.93)[3] why because they gave him life, and they will give you life as well. When Jesus was being tempted by the devil after 40 days in the wilderness, (He had not eaten or drunken anything), the first temptation was food. The devil said to Jesus, “Command these stones to become bread.” But Jesus said, “It is written man shall not live on bread alone but by every Word that comes from the Mouth of God” (Matthew 4.4, CSB). We too must live on the Word of God
      Who do you belong to? Yes, your parents, but what about spiritual? Are you a child of God or the devil? These are the only two choices you have. The Psalmist declares, “I am Yours!” Can you declare this—Is God yours? Do you know Him as your Lord and Savior? He is the only One Who can save you from the enemy. If you are a child of God, are you placing His Words into your heart? Are you seeking after His precepts and thinking on His testimonies?
      When it comes down to the end, no matter what you do or say. No matter how great or small you are. No matter how powerful or insignificant you become, God’s Word is greater and must find a place within our hearts and minds if we are truly going to live a life pleasing to the Lord. Solomon summed it up best in the book of Ecclesiastes, “But beyond these, my son, be warned: there is no end to the making of many books, and much study wearies the body. When all has been heard, the conclusion of the matter is: fear God and keep His commands, because this is for all humanity. For God will bring every act to judgment, including every hidden thing, whether good or evil” (Ecclesiastes 12.12-14, HCSB).[4]
      Know God, study God, Seek God, draw close to God, all through His Word. It will bring you life, joy and happiness; all the while providing you with comfort, peace and a way of life which will surpass anything you have ever known.
 
Application

  1.  Are you making God’s Word number one in your life? If not, Why? Make a commitment today to read at least one chapter of God’s Word every day from today going forward. Start with Matthew 1 and read the New Testament.
  2. Go outside tonight, look up at the sky and if you can see the stars and moon, think about how wonderful all God’s creation is. Now think about how wonderful you are being created by the very same God. As you stand out there, pray to God and thank Him for creating the universe and for creating you. Take a few minutes to just praise God for all He has done in your life in the past few weeks.
  3. I want to continue to encourage you to memorize scripture. Here are the verses we are working on: Psalm 119.11, 105 — Proverbs 3.5 — Isaiah 41.10 — Matthew 14.26—John 1.1; 3.16; 14.6 — Romans 3.23; 5.8; 6.23; 10.9,10, 13 Galatians 3.26; 5.22-23 — Ephesians 2:8-10 — Philippians 3.8-9, 4:6 — II Timothy 1.7, 3:16 — I John 1.9; 5.13

Prayer
 
      Almighty God, thank You for creating such an amazing universe. It is awesome to see all the things in this world and in the sky above. To think that You spoke it into existence, sometimes is hard to wrap my mind around. I thank You for Your Word, because through Your Word I can see and understand Your amazing design, love, compassion, faithfulness, and desire for not only me but everyone in the world. Lord help me to be the best testimony I can be for You each and every day, In Your dear Son Jesus Christ’s Name, Amen.
