In His Word, the Bible, our Triune God has given us His laws and commandments to enable us, through the power and strength of the Holy Spirit to be spiritually sustained by the Word of God. As it is written; “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119:105).
There is more wisdom in the Bible than in any other book ever written in the past and that will ever be written in the future. The Word of God is the wisdom of God and the very spiritual, moral and ethical foundation for any society in any nation of the world. When leaders of nations and those over whom they rule abandon the Word of God and reject it they inevitably come under His judgement because; “righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne” (Psalm 89:14a).
As it is also written; “The LORD has made Himself known; He has executed judgment. In the work of His own hands the wicked is snared. The wicked will return to Sheol (Hell), Even all the nations who forget God” (Psalm 9:16-17). As it is also written; “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people” (Proverbs 14:34).
If ever we need the power of God’s Word to be active in our daily lives in these last days we need to see the spiritual power available to us through His Word which is “forever settled in heaven” (Psalm 119:89), and “which abides forever” (1 Peter 1:25). Regardless of how we might feel facing difficult circumstances or experiencing “a spirit of heaviness through manifold temptations” the Word of God will say the same thing tomorrow as it does today!
In looking at these verses in Psalm 19:1-7 we have God’s spiritual weapon to stave off the spiritual deception and seduction so prevalent in the world, and a growing infestation within the wider Body of Messiah and the assaults that assail us from the evil one. Also we have the LORD’s instructions as to how living by His Word we can know His blessings upon all the changing seasons or circumstances of our lives…
