Todays Verse for Tuesday, July 29, 2014 I will never forget your precepts, for by them you have preserved my life. —Psalm 119:93 Thoughts on Todays Verse... Much like the rules parents have for young children — dont drink whats under the cabinet, dont play in the street, dont walk out from behind parked cars... — Gods guidance is not to restrict us, but to protect us. His commands, both positive and prohibitive, are for our protection and perfection. By them we find life and have it preserved. (The Old Testament Law had all sorts of cleanliness laws that did not make any sense at all until thousands of years after they were written when we began to understand bacteria and viruses. All through these years, the Israelites were preserved by Gods command when they had no real understanding why God had given the laws in the first place.) Prayer... Holy Lord, help me see your words as life. I know you have given your commands, your will for holiness, to bless me and protect me. Use your Spirit to make my heart less stubborn and my life more nearly conformed to your will. In Jesus name and by his power I ask it. Amen.
