“The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.” – Psalm 19:7-8 (NASB)
One of the greatest blessings which God has given us are his
words and thoughts in the Bible. When
David wrote this psalm he expressed his appreciation using selected words. This
Psalm extols the Words God has given to us. Each of four parallel lines in
today’s verses contains a word (a synonym) for God’s Word; each describes what
His Word is; and each pronounces what it effectually accomplishes. God has given us the Bible to reveal His
thinking about how we should live. This,
of course is a manifestation of His perfect love for us. So, when we read the Bible we are reminded of
God's love and His concern for us. That should resonate in the heart and mind
of every faith believer. And when our hears are full of joy it shows in our
eyes? Our inner sense and well-being can
be seen by other when they look at us. Yes, our eyes reveal our inner spirit as
they glisten with joy and that is what David was expressing about his
experience. Let's be sure to pay
attention often to what God has revealed to us in His Word.
