Good morning, everyone!
Today I read Psalm 119:89-176.
And I want to focus on just a couple verses today.
Psalm 119:89-91 - Forever, O LORD, Your word is settled in heaven. Your faithfulness continues throughout all generations; You established the earth, and it stands. They stand this day according to Your ordinances, for all things are Your servants.
God is eternal. His Word is established. His faithfulness is forever.
Psalm 119:99-100 - I have more insight than all my teachers, for Your testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the aged, because I have observed Your precepts.
From God's word, we gain wisdom. When we study His laws and keep them in our hearts, we have more wisdom than even our teachers.
And age is no indicator of wisdom. A young person who knows God's word has more wisdom than an older person who does not.
I find this to be very interesting.
There's a saying that's been going on for a while. "Common sense isn't very common anymore."
But what is common sense but wisdom?
True wisdom comes from God. And if you want to be truly wise, study His word and His laws, learn them, and remember them.
The world may not consider knowledge of God's Word to be "intelligence," but that's not what we're going for. We want God's wisdom, which is priceless.
I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Psalms 120-132.
