Beloved, I am glad to share today with you the two following strophes of Psalms 119 and pertaining to the fine gourmet on the one hand, and to the need of seeing clearly, on the other hand.
As a matter of fact, these verses bring to light the reality that a student could become better that his teacher, and accrue experience within a short time whenever he directly draws it from the source of wisdom.
Indeed, this source is the Law, the Word of God which honey taste gives envy to learn and to return there without ceasing. Then, when you have known such a flavour, lying practices quickly disgust.
Therefore, the word of God keeps its entire flavour, and has means to fully satisfy those who have appetite for wisdom.
Moreover, let’s note that without light, you may lose tour way and find yourself locked in a deadly impasse. Light is the symbol of life, recovered by the power of the Word. As a result, the laws of God respond and rejoice the human heart desire.
So, let’s discern the good path in twilight, bearing in mind that even false lights attract bewildered fireflies. They dazzle more than they provide light, through promises of fast happiness, unlimited power, and of immediate satisfaction of all greeds.
Nevertheless, the only light of the word of God can durably provide satisfaction to human heart desire and therefore allows a better discernment.
MEM
Psalms 119:97 O what love I have for your law! I give thought to it all the day.
98 Your teaching has made me wiser than my haters: for it is mine for ever.
99 I have more knowledge than all my teachers, because I give thought to your unchanging word.
100 I have more wisdom than the old, because I have kept your orders.
101 I have kept back my feet from all evil ways, so that I might be true to your word.
102 My heart has not been turned away from your decisions; for you have been my teacher.
103 How sweet are your sayings to my taste! truly, they are sweeter than honey in my mouth!
104 Through your orders I get wisdom; for this reason I am a hater of every false way.
NUN
105 Your word is a light for my feet, ever shining on my way.
106 I have made an oath and kept it, to be guided by your upright decisions.
107 I am greatly troubled, O Lord, give me life in keeping with your word.
108 Take, O Lord, the free offerings of my mouth, and give me knowledge of your decisions.
109 My soul is ever in danger; but I still keep the memory of your law.
110 Sinners have put a net to take me; but I was true to your orders.
111 I have taken your unchanging word as an eternal heritage; for it is the joy of my heart.
112 My heart is ever ready to keep your rules, even to the end.
Our prayers strengthen you all in becoming the fine gourmet for the Word of God.
PRAYER OF ACCEPTANCE OF JESUS CHRIST AS LORD AND PERSONAL SAVIOR
I now invite anyone who wants to become a new creation by walking in the truth, to pray with me as follows :
Lord Jesus, I have long walked in the lusts of the world ignoring your love for humans. I acknowledge that I have sinned against you and ask forgiveness for all my sins, because today I have decided to give you my life by taking you as my Lord and personal Savior. I acknowledge that you died on the cross of Calvary and that you rose from the dead for me.
I am now saved and born again by the power of the Holy Spirit. Lead me each day to eternal life you give to all who obey your Word. Reveal to me and strengthen my heart and my faith so that your light may shine in my life right now.
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for accepting me in your divine family so that I too can contemplate the wonders of your kingdom.
I will now choose a nearby waterpoint to baptize myself by immersion, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
To you all adoration, power, and glory, now and forever and ever. Amen!
I would be glad to revert on your queries as necessary, before sharing next week on the two following strophes pertaining to a secure shield, and to a service that attracts another one.
May the almighty God bless you in abundance.
David Feze, Servant of the Living God.
