As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried
- Psalm 18:30
What an understatement to us today! Especially in this current world view with its alternative facts. But when David said it he had less evidence than we do! God's Word has been tried, tested, scrutinized, and relied upon by Christians throughout the ages. And, just as David testified, they have found it more than sufficient for their every need. They have discovered, in every generation and in every hard circumstance, that God's Word truly is perfect.
His counsel is always wise, his history is always accurate, his lessons are always true, and his commands are always relevant. God's way is perfect. He does not need to SWEAR. He can swear on himself!! But David was not merely making an observation or teaching an academic lesson; David's point is that because God's Word has been tried and tested by millions through the centuries, and has been found perfect, each of us should therefore build our lives on this tried and sure foundation. Fred Hammond sings a song called Perfect and True! Pure in all your ways. (Look up on u tube).
Who do you look to for direction and for advice? Do you trust popular opinion, what's trending on Twitter, or well-meaning friends, to help you make decisions and find meaning in life? Or do you go to God's perfect Word over and over again, for counsel in every area of life? Every area. Even those u think u got under control? Yes that one.
The Word of the Lord is tried, it is proven, it is sure -- but have you tried it?. Just do it!
He's got this. That's what I heard. Be blessed today!
