Seeking God's Decrees

Salvation is far from the wicked,

for they do not seek out your decrees. Psalm 119:155  

I have continued to read in Psalm 119. It seems it is about following Gods decrees, his promises, his word, his statues, his commands. Those that love God seek out his ways. It is something we do in all aspects of life. Salvation is far from the wicked says the verse above. Who would the wicked be: even in 2 Chronicles 7:14, God tells those who are called by his name to turn from their wicked ways. So even those that claim the name of Christ are sometimes wicked, when they don't follow God's ways. There are many aspects to being a Christian. Probably the greatest is showing love. Love even our enemies is one of God's ways that is sometimes hard to fathom. If we love God, we seek out his ways, his decrees. Someone recently said, if you don't give, you are not saved. It shows a selfish heart when we don't give. God word tells us to give. Freely ye have received, freely give. Selfishness is the opposite of God. Jesus gave it all, his very life for our sins. Do we seek out God's decrees? do we seek out God's ways? We need to, God has the answers for life, written in his words, his decrees, is laws. We need to seek them out and not just for head knowledge but to live it. Not just behind closed doors on Sunday morning, but every day of the week as we live life. I need God, in every aspect of life. God has the answers for the world today, and I can guarantee,  his ways and words, Decrees and commands, will sometimes seem hard. But they work. He who makes the earth rotate around the sun also knows how we tick. He is a sovereign God. Bless and praise his name, and seek his ways. I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil. Psalm 119:62 It is amazing to me the treasures you can find in the word of God when you look for them. I feel I find new treasures, new scriptures that speak to me each week,  though I have read God's word for 30 plus years. It pertains to our business, our relationships, even civil authority. What do we do with what God has given us? I am blessed to be his child.  God bless, LVZ.
