What is Your Understanding of The Law of God?

The Commands of God is also called as the ‘law of God’. The law of God is not simply a list of Do’s and Don’ts but it reveals the heart of God for our well-being. God’s commandments are not meant to hurt us or take away our joy; God’s laws are meant to guard us, guide us, and ultimately point us to Jesus!

When we understand the law correctly then we will be able to say like the Psalmist in Psalm 119:97, “Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long.” Reading, meditating and loving God’s Word is a daily discipline and a life-long practice. Meditating on religious matters is observed in religions around the world which is why it might be useful to expand your knowledge of spiritual disciplines like yoga to enable you to connect with your inner self and ruminate on deep, philosophical matters that strengthen your spiritual connection with a greater power. If you wanted to take this a step further, you could consider becoming a teacher of it yourself – check out the rishikesh yoga teacher training center in india if this is of interest to you. Remember, yoga is not an exclusionary practice and it could be mightily helpful for Christians seeking to develop a more rounded spiritual wellness.

The children in their Sunday School song teach us…

Read your Bible, pray everyday, Pray everyday, pray everyday

Read your Bible, pray everyday. And you’ll grow, grow, grow

God wants us to grow…We must grow! We grow by loving God and His Word. There are many things we love…We love God, our family, our friends, our church and things special to us. May we have a special love for God’s Word.

Few Reasons why we love God’s Word:

  1. It is God’s creative power! (Genesis 1)
  2. It is Alive! (Hebrews 4:12)
  3. It is full of Surprises! (Isaiah 43:19)
  4. It is powerful in practical ways! (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
  5. It centers on Jesus! (John 5:39)
  6. It brings people to Jesus! (1 Peter 1:23)

The question is how much of your heart is full of God’s Word?

GOD’S AWESOME TREASURE

“For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession. The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. But it was because the Lord loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.” – Deuteronomy‬ ‭7: 6-9 ‭NIV‬‬
God invites us to make an awesome and absolute commitment to follow Him. He invites us to this supreme level of followership, because He goes all in to give His all for us.
He exhibits and expresses His commitment to us:
  • We are His treasured  choice: He chose us above everyone else to be most precious treasured possession for God
  • His extravagant love is poured out on us: He set his affection on us and poured out his love on us more than anyone else
  • He displays His unchanging  faithfulness to us: He is a God who ever faithful to us and will fulfil His promises to us.

BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO FEARS THE LORD -Proverbs 28:14

Fear paints a picture of helplessness and hopelessness. It steals our peace and focus. What are we fearful about ? We are concerned about the safety of our families, health, finances, jobs, relationships, future etc. How did David deal with his fears ? Answer is found in Psalm 34:4
“I sought the Lord, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears“.
And how does God deliver us from our fears ? When we “look to Him”(vs 5), focus on Him, call upon Him and pray to Him, our fears fade. ” ..those who fear Him lack nothing” (vs 9) concludes David. How wonderful it is that in the fear of the Lord we are delivered from all our fears.

CLINGING TO DUST OR RUNNING TO GOD’S WORD?

My soul clings to the dust; give me life according to your word! [Psalm 119:25, ESV]

There are times when we go to God’s Word and every word seems to have life and leap out from the pages. On the other hand, sometimes our hearts seem to grow dull, the words feel lifeless, having little or no impact on our lives. At such times Psalm 119 – a poem of love for the word of God – seems so remote from our experience. All through the Psalm, however, we find expressions of real sorrow and frustration, and in verse 25, for instance, the psalmist confesses that his soul clings to the dust. Read more
