Psalm 19
7 The law of the Lord is perfect,[c]
reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
Testimony-the statement or declaration of a witness under oath or affirmation, usually in court.
Have you ever thought about the fact that every word in the Bible is inspired by God? Well if you didn't, Paul did :)
2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness,
That being said think about even the testimonies in God's word. Those things that make the modern day wiseguy say "THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!"
The creation of the earth
The sun standing still
Jonah and the Whale
Super old ladies giving birth
Abraham and Isaac
Seas being parted
Dead being raised
Fire falling from the sky
Angel Armies surrounding enemies
...........
Christ living a sinless life
Christ on the Cross
Christ risen from the grave
Things that the modern wiseguy says don't make sense.... Are the same things that the wiseguys have been saying don't make sense since the beginning, and yet God still does them and still testifies about them.
But what about us, those who claim Christ? Do we find ourselves doubting the testimonies of God's word? Do we look back on such great power that He has displayed in His word and even in our own lives, and yet still find ourselves walking in lives of doubt?
Now understand that when I say walking in lives of doubt, that I don't mean having doubts here and there. What I mean is living a doubtful life. A life so much led by doubt that we simply miss out on seeing God move, because we chose not to do what He's called us to.
When we choose not to do what God has called us to do, we walk in doubt that what He has is good for us, we live in doubt that He can really bring us through what it is He's called us to do, and we live in doubt that He is truly powerful over all things. We find ourselves leading ourselves.... We're deaf with no hearing aide and blind with no walking stick, and we trust us?!
His testimony is sure
Making even the wisest of men simple
His testimony tells of His power
His testimony tells of His love
His testimony testimony tells of His heart for us
His testimony is sure
Let's be sure of our God
You know how people say
"You're so full of yourself."
Let our prayer be this
"Lord if I'm full of myself
empty me completely, and fill me with You.
I want to be so full of You! I don't want to be sure in me,
but in You!"
