Psalm 19:9a "The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever"

Day 145 – Psalm 19

“The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever” Psalm 19:9a

A HIGH REGARD FOR GOD’S WORD

David had the highest regard for the Word of God for two main reasons:-

1. The nature of God’s word.

2. The effect of God’s word on readers.

THE NATURE OF GOD’S WORD

The following are wonderful statements of truth:-

1. It is perfect.

2. It is sure.

3. It is right.

4. It is pure.

5. It is true and righteous.

EFFECT OF GOD’S WORD

We have some very astute observations about the effects of God’s word on its readers.

1. It can convert the soul.

2. It can make the simple wise.

3. It can rejoice the heart.

4. It can enlighten the eyes.

5. It can create a wonderful sense of fear of God.

A GREAT CHALLENGE

The Word of God was not given to academics to debate in the seminary classroom. God’s word was given to us to bless our lives. Let us be challenged:

1. To build a higher regard for God’s Word.

2. To experience for ourselves the power of God’s word in our life. May we experience the blessings the psalmist observed in the lives of those who fear the Lord.
