Comfort of the Scriptures

“Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?” “Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising; Thou understandest my thought afar off. … For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, Thou knowest it altogether,” and “neither is there any creature that is not manifest in His sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.” “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.” “(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds;) casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringeth into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” “Doth not He see my ways, and count all my steps?” So “search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”

He looks upon the hearts of men; He sees the good and the bad; He traces His children’s pathway; He knows when we’re sad or glad.

A Christian’s love for the Lord may be accurately measured by his love for the Word, for our Lord said, “If ye love Me, keep My commandments,” and “then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, If ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Let no one who neglects and lightly esteems the Word of God talk about his love for the Lord. If you would “delight thyself also in the Lord,” it must be because “Thy testimonies also are my delight, and my counselors,” for what can we know about the Lord Jesus, except what He has told us in His Word? He said that “the Scriptures … are they which testify of Me.” If we truly love Him, we can say, “O how love I Thy law! It is my meditation all the day,” and “therefore I love Thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.” So “be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves,” for “whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.”

To know the Word and not do it Brings reproach upon His name; His Word is a light to our path; Obeyed, it keeps us from shame.

Prayer not only brings blessing to those prayed for, it also brings blessing to those who pray, for, in order to pray effectually, we must be in close fellowship with the Lord. “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me,” for “whatsoever we ask, we receive of Him, because we keep His commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.” Thus we “draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.” By His provision through Christ, we “cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.” So prayer brings blessing to the pray-er because it keeps us desirous of fellowship with God. Prayer also brings a blessing to the one who prays because it turns us from self-centeredness to concern for others, so that we no longer “look … every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others,” as we seek in prayer to “bear … one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” Further, prayer makes us dependent upon God, causing us to realize that “every good gift and every perfect gift is from above.” “My prayer returned into mine own bosom.”

To pray in the Spirit to God, We must draw nigh unto Him; Then His blessing comes to our hearts, And things of the world grow dim.

Ezekiel was given a prophetic vision of the millennial temple, from whence our Lord Jesus shall reign over all the earth. Then “the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.” But it will not detract from that future scene of blessing to remind ourselves that for us now, those waters picture God’s abounding grace toward His own. Our Lord told the Samaritan woman that “whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life,” and His gracious invitation to all is, “Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters,” “and whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” And as we come to Him and go on with Him, we learn that “where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.” As we “grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,” we learn that His grace is all-sufficient, “a river that I could not pass over … waters to swim in.”

“Rivers of living water” flow From the Person of our Lord; “Waters to swim in,” depth untold, Come forth from the living Word.

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with His hand.” God is genuinely concerned about His redeemed children and wants to lead us “in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake,” and “if any man will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine.” So we are told to “be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.” He has promised that “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with Mine eye.” “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” “Ye shall observe to do therefore as the Lord your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.” So “show me Thy ways, O Lord; teach me Thy paths. Lead me in Thy truth, and teach me: for Thou art the God of my salvation; on Thee do I wait all the day,” and He promises that when we “in all thy ways acknowledge Him … He shall direct thy paths.”

I would walk in the ways of the Lord, Trusting Him to lead and to guide, For His Word is a lamp to my feet, Trustworthy, whatever betide.

What God has purposed and promised, He will fulfill, in spite of all the liberals and atheists and unbelievers. “Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee: the remainder of wrath shalt Thou restrain.” This is to say that God will fulfill His purposes in the world and with His own people in spite of all opposition. “We can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth,” and He “worketh all things after the counsel of His own will.” He “is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working,” and “hath He said, and shall He not do it? Or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good?” And all this is “according to the working of His mighty power, which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places … and hath put all things under His feet.” “The Lord of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand.” “I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning … saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure,” “for I will hasten My word to perform it.”
