January 24
(101) I have restrained my feet from every evil way, That I may keep Your word. (102) I have not departed from Your judgments, For You Yourself have taught me. (103) How sweet are Your words to my taste, Sweeter than honey to my mouth! (104) Through Your precepts I get understanding; Therefore I hate every false way.
Enero 24 Salmo 119:101-104
“De todo mal camino contuve mis pies, Para guardar tu palabra. No me aparté de tus juicios, Porque tú me enseñaste. ¡Cuán dulces son a mi paladar tus palabras! Más que la miel a mi boca. De tus mandamientos he adquirido inteligencia; Por tanto, he aborrecido todo camino de mentira.”

Psa 119:101-102 KJ2000 101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep your word. 102 I have not departed from your judgments: for you have taught me.
Because the Holy Spirit teaches us we can not depart from His judgements. It takes effort to restrain from doing things even if you have been taught there has to be a desire to obey

v103-104 impacted me. His Word should be sweet to our taste! When I read His Word I must chew on it, digest it and receive nutrients from it. When I receive nutrients from the Word I then grow in understanding of His appointed Truths! That should give me energy to enact (put into action) His Word in my life. It should also quicken me to false truths (the junk food) that wants to lure me away from His statutes (boundaries).

The symbol for water is H2O in English. In Hebrew it written with an open MEM, a YUD, and a closed MEM. This is also the Hebrew word MAYIM. The open MEM signifies a water source that is open to impurities. The YUD signifies God’s hand. The closed MEM signifies pure and living water. When impure water goes through the Hands of God it is purified (healed), and made into Living Water.

After Jesus returns and becomes our King on Earth, a temple will be built that is described in the last eight chapters of Ezekiel. It says that LIVING WATER will flow from the Temple and make a deep river that will go through the Arabah (desert) and flow in to the DEAD SEA. Everything that this living water touches will become pure and be healed.

Ezekiel 47:8 “Then he said to me, These waters go out toward the eastern region and go down into the Arabah(desert); then they go toward the sea, being made to flow into the sea, and the waters of the Dead Sea become fresh(Living Waters).”

God’s Word comes to bring us that LIVING WATER to purify us to be HOLY! When we turn from our impure and self-centered WAYS, and HUMBLE ourselves to walk in God’s WAYS, acknowledging that they are what is best for us, then we are walking in WISDOM and UNDERSTANDING. Verses 101-104 show us:

• When we KEEP (guard) God’s Word in our hearts, we are able to restrain (restrict, keep back) our feet from every evil way. The word for RESTRAIN is KALA in Hebrew. It is composed of a KAP, a LAMED, and an ALEPH. When we RESTRAIN we are COMPARING our GOOD WORKS to GOD’S WAYS.
• When we allow God to teach us His Judgments, we will not depart (turn aside) from them.
• When we slow down and take the time to savor (taste and enjoy) God’s Words, we will be able to comprehend how sweet they are, sweeter than honey.
• When we truly understand God’s precepts, we will hate every false way (our ways).

Jeremiah 31:9 "With weeping (humble repentance) they will come, and by supplication I will lead them; I will make them walk by streams of waters , on a straight path in which they will not stumble…"

I know our flesh is telling us that our WAYS are best, but I pray we are all seeing that God’s WAYS truly are the only way we are to WALK in!

Could this MEM, vast supply of water, living streams and springs, God’s Word and Precepts, be the forerunner of our communion/fellowship that we have with the Son’s “water and blood” that Witnesses and Testifies over us?! The Rock, Christ Jesus, that we are baptized into and have communion with! 1 Cor 10.2-4 and 1 Jn 5.6-13

I’m overcome with the revealed Promise!

I’m agreeing with The Witness and Testimony of my faith! I’m living baptized in the waters of communion! I’m applying the WATER and Blood for my own cleansing and appealing/standing in the gap!

It is only the vast supply of Water that causes me to see and “hate every false way” , every lying voice, and false image, and the Blood 🩸 that cleanses and sets free.
These three AGREE, the Spirit, the Water, and the Blood!

Ps 113.3 “From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, I will PRAISE the name of the LORD.”
