A Daily Devotional – Creation – The Eternal Word (15)
Comment: God our Creator maintains laws, precepts,
statutes, commandments and judgments, to sustain His Creation. Physical Life,
Spiritual Life and Eternal Life are REAL because His Laws are PERFECT, His
Testimonies are SURE, His Statutes are RIGHT, His Commandments are PURE the
fear of (and for) the LORD is UNDERSTANDING that God is unchanging as His Judgments are TRUE. Thus it is God’s favor to keep, protect and sustain His Creation. When
we meditate on God through His Word and in the power of the Holy Spirit, the
result will always be THANK YOU LORD. Yes there are many reasons to give
thanks, but if that giving of thanks is not covered in the Blood of Christ and
established in the Power of His bodily RESURRECTION it will not be ACCEPTABLE on this planet or in eternity.
Devotional: Dr.
Thomas Constable in his commentary on Psalm 19, makes this statement. "I
take this to be the greatest poem in the Psalter and one of the greatest lyrics
in the world.". I totally agree, it is the ONE Psalm I visit regularly, the
second would be Psalm 22, both penned by King David.
1 To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of
David. The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His
handiwork. 2 Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals
knowledge. 3 There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not
heard. 4 Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words
to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun, 5 Which
is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, And rejoices like a strong man
to run its race. 6 Its rising is from one end of heaven, And its circuit
to the other end; And there is nothing hidden from its heat. 7 The law
of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple; 8 The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing
the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes; 9
The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the Lord are
true and righteous altogether. 10 More to be desired are they than gold,
Yea, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. 11 Moreover
by them Your servant is warned, And in keeping them there is great reward. 12
Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults. 13 Keep
back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over
me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression. 14
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your
sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.
My your Day of Thanks be wonderful, God bless you all.
