Am I obedient to God's Word?

How blessed are those whose way is blameless,
Who walk in the law of the Lord.

Am I committed to total obedience to His Word?
Do I spend time meditating on His Word daily?

How blessed are those who observe His testimonies,
Who seek Him with all their heart.

Am I seeking God with all my heart?

They also do no unrighteousness;
They walk in His ways.

Do I justify what I want when it contradicts His Word?
Am I 100% committed to executing His will, His way?

You have ordained Your precepts,
That we should keep them diligently.

Do I "value highly" obedience to His Word?

But without faith it is impossible to [walk with God and] please Him, for whoever comes [near] to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He rewards those who [earnestly and diligently] seek Him. - Hebrews 11:6 (Amplified Bible)

Oh that my ways may be established
To keep Your statutes!

Is it my life's goal to know God and to be obedient to His Word?

Then I shall not be ashamed
When I look upon all Your commandments.

But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and has made the Lord his hope and confidence. Only the Lord knows! He searches all hearts and examines deepest motives so he can give to each person his right reward, according to his deeds—how he has lived. - Jeremiah 17:7,10 (Living Bible)

I shall give thanks to You with uprightness of heart,
When I learn Your righteous judgments.

Do I take time to thank God for His Word?

I shall keep Your statutes;
Do not forsake me utterly! - Psalm 119:1-8 (NASB)

Your word I have treasured in my heart,
That I may not sin against You. - Psalm 119:11 (NASB)

When we walk with the Lord
in the light of his word,
what a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will,
he abides with us still,
and with all who will trust and obey.
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey. - John Sammis

Be Encouraged to trust in God, obey His Word and execute His will.

Am I a Daniel?

Image
Then Darius the king wrote to all the peoples, nations, and men of every tongue who were inhabiting all the land: “May your peace abound! I make a decree that in all the dominion of my kingdom, men are to fear and be in dread before the God of Daniel; For He is the living God and enduring forever, And His kingdom is one which will not be destroyed, And His dominion will be unto the end. He saves and delivers and does signs and wonders In heaven and on earth, Who has also saved Daniel from the power of the lions.” So this Daniel enjoyed success in the kingdom of Darius and in the kingdom of Cyrus the Persian. - Daniel 6:25-28 (LSB) Impacted by Daniel and by the Lord, Darius the Mede expressed himself as if he had come to a point of personal trust in God for his salvation such as Nebuchadnezzar had before him. Daniel illustrated the evangelistic potency of a godly, uncompromising life. - John MacArthur Now when Daniel knew that the written document was signed, he entered his house (now i...

What is my response?

Then I saw a Lamb that looked as if it had been slaughtered, but it was now standing between the throne and the four living beings and among the twenty-four elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which represent the sevenfold Spirit of God that is sent out into every part of the earth. He stepped forward and took the scroll from the right hand of the one sitting on the throne. And when he took the scroll, the four living beings and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp, and they held gold bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of God’s people. And they sang a new song with these words: “You are worthy to take the scroll and break its seals and open it. For you were slaughtered, and your blood has ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation. And you have caused them to become a Kingdom of priests for our God. And they will reign on the earth.”   Then I looked again, and I heard the voices of thousands and...

What is the way?

“Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am,  you may be also. And you know the way where I am going.” Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going. How do we know the way?” Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but through Me. - John 14:1-6 (LSB) If you were to die tonight, meet God at the gates of heaven, and He asked you, why should I let you into my heaven, what would you say? We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are. For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Yet God, in his grace, freely makes us right in his sight. He did this through Christ...
