THE NATURE AND THE VALUE OF GOD'S REVEALED WILL
Reality energizes! The surest source of reality - that which
is good, true, and enduring - is God's revealed will. It informs
the mind, stirs the heart, provokes the will, yet, it exists
primarily to minister to the conscience. Its provisions are
unique. Those who base their lives on the law of the Lord, are
secure for they are ruled by the highest moral standard, and
spiritual measure.
Our duty to God and our expectation from Him, is of greater
value to us than day or night, or the air we breathe. The
discoveries made of God by his works in nature (Psa. 19:1-6),
might have been sufficient if man had retained his integrity;
but, to recover man from sin, God chose to reveal His will. In
six sentences, the psalmist declared the value of God's word,
(Psa.19:7-9). In each sentence,
God's name is repeated, because the authority and excellence
of the law is from Him. Six titles of the word of God are set
forth, exalting its purpose and value, and its divine origin.
"The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul" It is
free from all defect, filled with all good, and fitted for the
holy purpose for which it was designed; and it is able to make
the man of God perfect unto every good work, ( II Tim. 3:16-
17). Being perfect, nothing is to be added to it nor taken from
it. It is perfectly suited to turn us back to the Lord God. It
sets forth the way of our return.
"The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple."
It is infallibly safe and sure. It is the sure revelation of
eternal truth, a sure foundation of living and of hope. It is
able to make us wise to salvation, (II Tim. 3:15). Insight into
things divine and things to come are supplied in it. It calls
us to noble work and to develop Christ-like character. Those
willing to be taught by it, and who humbly embrace it, shall
be made wise, (Psa. 25:9).
"The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart."
Eternal rules and principles of God distinguish between good
and evil. They establish right reasoning for man in the right
counsel of God. All God's precepts are right (Psa. 119:128),
and if received and submitted to, they will bring rejoicing to
our hearts. In the hands of Christ, the statutes of the Lord
are cause for joy; and, when written in our hearts, they are a
foundation for everlasting joy.

…continued from front
"The commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes." God's commands
are clear, without darkness; they are
clean, without defect or defilement, and
they are purifying to those that receive
them. The commandments of the Lord are
the means the Spirit uses to enlighten
the eyes, and to direct us in the way of
righteousness.
"The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring
forever.” Godliness reigning in the
heart, and practiced in life is clean
itself, and will make us clean (John
15:3). It will cleanse our way (Psa.
119:9). God's decree to fear Him endures
forever! Time will never alter the
nature of moral good and evil.
"The judgments of the Lord are true and
righteous altogether." The judgments
which God has decreed are true, rest upon
eternal truths, and are in agreement with
righteousness. They are all of one piece,
and there is no unrighteousness in any of
them.
The psalmist insisted: "More to be
desired are they than gold, yea, than
much fine gold; sweeter also than honey
and the honeycomb. Moreover by them Your
servant is warned, and in keeping them
there is great reward" (Psa.19:10-11).
- Ronald Bryant
Life certainly has its ups and
downs; its joys and sorrows. We
struggle through the sorrows and
celebrate the joys. It’s fun to
celebrate the joys of life.
Here’s an interesting idea
though; the greatest joy is
enhanced and expanded when you
understand that Jesus came to
earth because He loves you.
God showed just how much He loves
mankind when He sent His only
Son.
Because Jesus came, lived, died
and rose again, your sins can be
forgiven and you can have the
hope of heaven and being with the
Lord for eternity. Now, that’s
a reason for joy that makes
everything shine brighter!
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died
for us. ~Romans 5:8
This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning
sacrifice for our sins. ~1 John 4:10
But because of his great love for us, God,
who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in
transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. ~ Ephesians 2:4-5
This is how God showed his love among us:
He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. ~1 John
4:9
Surely your goodness and love will follow
me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. ~Psalm 23:6
