January 25
(105)Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. (106) I have sworn and confirmed That I will keep Your righteous judgments. (107) I am afflicted very much; Revive me, O LORD, according to Your word. (108) Accept, I pray, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, And teach me Your judgments.
Enero 25 Salmo 119:105-108
“Lámpara es a mis pies tu palabra, Y lumbrera a mi camino. Juré y ratifiqué Que guardaré tus justos juicios. Afligido estoy en gran manera; Vivifícame, oh Jehová, conforme a tu palabra. Te ruego, oh Jehová, que te sean agradables los sacrificios voluntarios de mi boca, Y me enseñes tus juicios.”

The ancient pictograph is a picture of a seed sprout representing the idea of continuing to a new generation. This pictograph has the meanings of "continue," "perpetuation," "offspring" and "heir."

The Modern Hebrew name is nun, a Hebrew word meaning to "continue," "offspring" and "heir." This two-letter word is the original name for the letter. The phonetic sound for this letter is "n," as it is in all other languages.

Our passage starts with, “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” This is a familiar verse that has us all saying, “Yes, I want that light”. But having a lighted path is not the goal, walking in humble submission to it is! The word for LIGHT and PATH both start with the letter NUN. This Hebrew letter resembles a bent and backwards C, signifying HUMILITY! For God’s Word to be an effective LIGHT and PATH we must receive it with humility. When we walk in humility, we allow the Holy Spirit to refine God’s character in us.

Verse 107 speaks to this also. “I am exceedingly afflicted; revive me, O Lord, according to Your word.” The word for afflicted is ANAH, which starts with a NUN, and it means HUMBLED and bowed down with the weight of our sin. Sin is telling God that we are NOT satisfied with the BOUNDARIES He has set for our lives (His Word, Ordinances, Laws, Precepts, testimonies, statutes…).

This passage tells us what our response to our sins should be before God after we have been humbled.
• Swear to keep His Word – vow to guard It as a treasure
• Confirm His Word – get up and walk in His Ways
• Give freewill offerings of our mouth to God – a freewill offering is a GIFT to God, singing His praises.

When we truly appreciate God’s boundaries for our lives, and are satisfied to walk in His Ways, then God will be most glorified. The Hebrew word for gift is NATAN. It begins and ends with a NUN. The NUN at the end is changed to its final form, which is no longer bent down, but raised up to be straight. When we humble ourselves to give God a gift of praise, good works, time in study of His Word, time in fellowship with Him, resulting with us walking in His Ways, GOD IS GLORIFIED. He is raised up in our eyes- we see Him for who He truly is.

Are we truly satisfied with the boundaries God has set for us as His sons and daughters?
