The Law of the Lord
by Roxanne
"O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day." Psalm 119:97 Can I make this declaration before God honestly and with a sincere heart? No doubt when David made this statement, he did not do so flippantly, or lightly. It was the cry of his heart. Notice the second part of the verse says, " it is my meditation all the day." David had made the Word of God the sovereign reign of his thoughts, and this brought about a love for the Truth that is only satisfied by a deeper understanding of the Truth. Prayer and reading the Bible cultivates the ground of our hearts , and "breaks up the fallow ground", preparing the way for the seeds of truth to be sown and to bring forth fruit unto God.



"The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward. Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults. Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression. Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer." Psalms 19:7-14
