God's discerning word.

Psalms 19:7-14 The law of the Lord is perfect reviving the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes. The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever. The ordinances of the Lord are sure and altogether righteous. They are more precious than god, than much pure god; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb. By them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward. Keep your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. then will I be blameless, Innocent of great transgression May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my Redeemer. The Bible clearly shows man his faults and weaknesses. The revealing word makes the sinner very umcomfortable because it accurately points out his hopelessly lost condition. It shows the actual condition of your heart. Only as you acknowledge your own wickedness and go on reading God's discerning Word will you discover His remedy for your sin and find salvation. Let the Bible convict you so that the Holy Spirit may then covert you. Don't criticize the Bible:let the Bible criticize you!

  1. Amen! We all fall short of Gods word and his will for our lives. I pray God will keep me close to him. Please Lord, I pray you will show me, guide me and keep my heart pleasing in your sight.

    Thank you Cassie for sharing a piece of Gods word. This is a great way for me to do a devotional.
