Shalom,


We finish Psalm 119 today! here are some more of my favorite verses! Verse 89:


89 Forever, O LORD, Your Word is settled in heaven [stands firm as the heavens]. 


We can COUNT on His Word! It has never changed and it never will! Hallelujah!  Verses 90-91:


90 Your faithfulness is from generation to generation; you have established the earth, and it stands fast. 91 All [the whole universe] are your servants; therefore they continue this day according to Your ordinances.


In the beginning GOD created everything! I don't care who doesn't believe it! No argument against God's Word by  any scientist has EVER stood up to the test! The universe is God's servant and continues just the way HE set it up! ALL according to HIS WORD! Hallelujah! Verse 96:


96 I have seen that everything [human] has its limits and end [no matter how extensive, noble, and excellent]; but Your commandment is exceedingly broad and extends without limits [into eternity].


What a glorious Truth that is! We can put all of our faith, trust and confidence in God and His Word! Now look at verses 97-100:


97 Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day. 98 You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies, for [Your words] are ever before me. 99 I have better understanding and deeper insight than all my teachers, because Your testimonies are my meditation. 100 I understand more than the aged, because I keep Your precepts [hearing, receiving, loving, and obeying them].


There is NO limit to how much we can understand of God's Word except what we put on ourselves! We have the potential to know God's Word more than any Bible teacher we have ever heard IF we apply ourselves to dig into the Word and dig out the precious treasures hidden in there FOR us! We should certainly know more than our enemies! How well do YOU know God's Word? How well do you WANT to know it? The choice is completely yours! Thank You, Lord Jesus, for making Your Word available to us! Amen! Verse 130:


130 The entrance and unfolding of Your Words give light; their unfolding gives understanding (discernment and comprehension) to the simple.


Here is a picture that goes along with the verse above!

The Word, the Word, the Word! Oh how I LOVE God's Word! Verse 160:


160 The sum of your Word is Truth [the total of the full meaning of all Your individual precepts]; and every one of Your righteous decrees endures forever.


See John 17:17 for confirmation of this verse! And the last one is verse 165:


165 Great peace have they who love Your law; nothing shall offend them or make them stumble.


Gods' Word contains the answer to every question, the solution to every problem, the wisdom for every endeavor, the promises of the Covenant and the keys to walking in all the fullness of God's Life!  We are, of all people, most blessed! Glory to God!  1 John 4 contains more wonderful Truths! Verse 4:


4 Little children, you are of God [you belong to Him] and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because he Who live in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world.


Remember, if you have received Jesus of Nazareth as your Lord and personal Saviour, then the Spirit  of Almighty God lives IN YOU! The God of all the universe lives in you, and HE is greater than anyone who could ever come against you in this world! That should give you great confidence! Then verse 19:


19 We love Him, because he first loved us.


We have the priceless privilege of being members of His family! We are saved by His blood, called by His Name, and have complete access to His holy Word! Thank HIM! Hallelujah!


Ezekiel 4-6 warns the people that Jerusalem would be destroyed. I will share this from the Bible Exposition Commentary:

When the sons of Asaph wanted to describe the city of Jerusalem, they wrote, "Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion on the sides of the north, the city of the great King" (Ps 48:2, NKJV). The Babylonian Talmud says, "Of the ten measures of beauty that came down to the world. Jerusalem took nine" (Kidushin 49 b), and, "Whoever has not seen Jerusalem in its splendor has never seen a lovely city" (Succah 51 b). Of modern Jerusalem, Samuel Heilman wrote, "It is a place in which people actually live; it is a place that lives in them." One of the Jewish exiles in Babylon wrote: "If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her skill! If I do not remember you, let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth-if I do not exalt Jerusalem above my chief joy" (Ps 137:5-6, NKJV). When Jewish families around the world celebrate Passover, they conclude the meal with, "Next year in Jerusalem!"


The Jewish exiles wouldn't be happy with the three messages Ezekiel would bring them from the Lord, for he was going to announce the destruction of Jerusalem and the ravaging of the Promised Land. It was bad enough that the Jews were exiles in a pagan land, but to be told that they would have no city to return to was more than they could bear. No wonder they preferred the encouraging messages of the false prophets. 

The did not heed the warning of the prophets, but the Word of God came to pass just exactly the way He said it would! But there was also the promise that Jerusalem would be rebuilt, and it was! I would definitely recommend a trip to the nation of Israel and the city of Jerusalem. There is no place like it in the entire world! God's people, God's land, and God's city! How dare anyone say or do otherwise! I would NOT want to be in those shoes! Remember to always pray for the peace and prosperity of the nation of Israel and the city of Jerusalem! YOUR blessing depends on it! Amen!

Shalom in Him!
