God's Daily Banquet for Us

Lessons from Psalms: 16
The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul.” Psalm 19:7
Would you like a concise explanation of the value of God’s word? Look in Psalm 19 and check out these descriptive terms: perfect, sure, right, pure, clean, true and righteous. Then consider what these seven descriptions can work in the world today. The can: convert the soul, make us wise, rejoice our heart, give us understanding, warn us and last us for eternity. More than that they have great value: better than gold, sweeter than honey and bring great reward.
The average American home has over 2.5 Bibles but according to statistics they are seldom used or read. This banquet of ideas and benefits that God has described should be one that is truly hard to pass up. Most of us wouldn’t pass by a buffet of fried chicken, roast ham, mashed potatoes, heavily frosted cakes, fragrant fruit pies, bread pudding and ice cream. We would stop and eat, especially since it is free. Yet everyday millions of believers walk right past just such a feast and grow weaker and weaker in spiritual hunger every day. But praise be to God, the banquet is always open and we are always welcome to feast and be blessed.

Dear Father, Thank You for the feast of Your word and the blessings and hope that it gives to us. Amen.
