Sunday January 15th
Bible Reading: Psalm 19
Topic: The Revelation Of God And His Word
Throughout the ages, it
has pleased God to reveal Himself to mankind.
Creation proves that there
is a Creator and the Heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament shows
His Handiwork (vs. 1)
We behold the Sun which
God created as it rises from one end of Heaven and sets at the other end. The
impact of the Sun touches everything in the Universe.
The Law of the Lord is
Perfect, converting the soul (vs. 7a).
By being Perfect, it means
that God's Law is Complete, Faultless, Profitable and without Confusion.
When the Law is properly
applied, it brings salvation to the soul and every other area of one's life,
that is it saves one from sin and its consequences, from sinful life and from
the fear of death.
The Law of the Lord, the
Testimony of the Lord, the Statute of the Lord and the Commandment of the Lord
are different expressions of the Word of God.
The Psalmist notes that
"...... in keeping them, there is great reward" (vs. 11b)
If you set your heart on
seeking and keeping God's Word, you will share the same testimony like the
Psalmist.
The Word brings divine
enlightenment that saves one from errors and presumptuous sins.
Unless the Lord graciously
reveals Himself and His Word to you, pride and self-righteousness will be
inevitable.
Prayer:
Father God, help me to
seek You daily through the Word that I may receive salvation of my soul and
blessing in every area of my life in Jesus Name
Amen
Memory verse: Psalm 19: 14
"let the words of my
mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Thy Sight, O Lord, my
Strength and my Redeemer."
