A Daily Devotional – Psalm 119:41-48 – Personal Meditation

Comment: Would you not agree? God never fails! As the psalmist of Psalm 119 explains in verse 41. The Mercy of the LORD is His unfailing love for His Creation. By the way, do we set aside His Words and say that we are not a part of His Creation. There is no salvation in thoughts like this, yet time and time again we witness people (His children) who become misguided by the persuasive words of false doctrines. False doctrines taunt the children of God, causing confusion and every evil thing that presents itself above the Wisdom and Knowledge revealed in Creation through His Word. 

Devotional: I do not have a lot of time this morning, so might I suggest that we read and meditate on this section of Psalm 119. (Well I was not able to get the devotional completed and had to leave, but now I am back). We are reproached daily and if we fail to have an answer for those who reproach us, we will not be the witness of God’s statutes as He desires. So prayer and meditation is not a suggestion, it is a mandatory need for the children of God, for those who trust in the LORD.

If we fail at this, our study of scripture will also fail and His word will not be in our mouth when it needs to be there. While our hope in God may never cease, we might allow it to fail or even fade from our daily walk and this is primarily due to our lack of prayer, meditation and study. To be a strong witnesses of God as the psalmist says, His Word should be “forever and ever fixed in our soul, then we will not be ashamed”; in time or eternity.

To live humbly before God and man is the duty and bond of love for God, for His Creation and His commands, for His laws, precepts, statutes and so forth. Do not toss aside these foundations of Truth and stray into the path of false teaching which is deceit. Put away false teaching immediately when you perceive it, it is as dross and will be burned up at the judgment seat of Christ. If you are involved in false teaching, you should tremble since God will judge this.
