“All your words are true; all your righteous laws are
eternal.” Psalm 119:160
In life we have many choices to make. The most important choice lies in whether we
believe in the existence of an unseen spirit entity known as Jehovah. Once we’ve made that decision we must decide
if we’re willing to believe what a book says He has done and said to man. The book is called the Holy Bible. Once we’ve grappled with that we must decide
whether to trust this unseen spirit
and His “word”. His word says we are all
sinners in need of someone to save us, which is another decision we must make. Do we choose to believe we have a problem
that we cannot solve ourselves? Do we choose
to believe that, more specifically, we
need this unseen spirit’s help to solve this problem?
David had very early in life made this choices and stood
firmly on that belief all his life. He
believed that all of the words from scripture, in his case just the Old
Testament verses, were directly from the mouth of Jehovah and therefore were
absolutely true and could be trusted implicitly. David also believed that the laws Jehovah set
down were for all men for all time. They
were the standard of living all men should follow.
Believers today tend to pick and choose what they would like
to believe and place their trust in when it comes to God. While we have that right due to the free will
we have been given, it is counterproductive.
It’s in our best interest to fully trust God for down through the
history of man He has proven to be trustworthy.
It’s also in our best interest to place our full trust in His word. What purpose does it serve us to dissect
scripture with a fine tooth comb when our finite minds cannot possible know the
full intention of what God is saying. We
can only know by seeking wisdom and discernment through the Holy Spirit that
lies within us to know even in part how God intends us to live. Make a spirit-influenced
choice. Trust God and His word fully. Until next time, walk with the King and be a
blessing
