What Should We Believe About The Word Of God

Psalm 119:2  

"Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, 

and that seek him with the whole heart."  

     Of course the Christians answer, is all of it. I want us to look at three very important characteristics we should believe about God's Word.  First, God's Word says what is true. The Bible tells us, that we can trust in the Word, " So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word,"119:42).  We can't believe everything we read on the internet. We can't trust everything we hear from our professors. We certainly can't trust all the facts given by our politicians. And we can't even trust the fact checkers who check those facts.  

Second, God's Word demands what is right.  Here  the psalmist gladly acknowledges God's right to issue commands and humbly accepts that all these commands are right.  "I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me." (PS.119:75).

    All God's commandments are sure. All His precepts are right.  Some Christians admit that they don't like what the Bible say's, but since it's the Bible they have to obey it. On one level, this is an example of submitting yourself to the word of God. However, we need and should go one step further and learn to see the goodness and rightness in all that God commands. We should Love what God Loves and delight in whatever He says. Third, God's Word provides what is good.  God's Word is the way to happiness,  "ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.   Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart," (Ps. 119:1-2).

   My Friends, God's Word gives us Hope, Strength and Wisdom and directs us on along our path. As the people of God, we believe the Bible is unfailing perfect. We believe the Word of God can be trusted in every way to speak what is true, command what is right and provide us with what is good.

Amen!
