“Steadfast Love and Faithfulness”

 

 

Prove me, O LORD, and try me, test my heart and my mind.  For Your Steadfast Love is before my eyes, and I walk in Your Faithfulness.   Psalm 26:2-3

 

King David asked God to PROVE him. What he was asking of God, was that God would EXAMINE him and to TEST his HEART and MIND concerning David’s character and his RELATIONSHIP with the Almighty God. 

 

David COULD ask God to PROVE and TEST him, because he had a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God, and he KNEW and was EXPERIENCING God’s STEADFAST LOVE, for that STEADFAST LOVE was before David’s eyes.  He was continually EXPERIENCING that LOVE. 

 

And because of that STEADFAST LOVE, David proclaimed that he WALKED or LIVED in GOD’S FAITHFULNESS.  What a BLESSING to EXPERIENCE God’s STEADFAST LOVE and to be able to WALK or LIVE in this WRETCHED, SIN-DRENCHED, world, in God’s FAITHFULNESS.  How BLESSED are the TRUE CHILDREN of the LIVING GOD that we have both His STEADFAST LOVE and His FAITHFULNESS within our reach.  Two things that God provides for those who belong to Him.

 

If you have not given your HEART and LIFE to God, by way of His Son, the REDEEMER of Mankind, who gave His LIFE, so that mankind might have EVERLASTING LIFE in HEAVEN with ALL its BLESSINGS.  You are destined to spend your ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  But because of God’s STEADFAST LOVE and FAITHFULNESS, He is giving you another opportunity to CHANGE your DESTINY.  To do that, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  And you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION and be able to ask God to PROVE you and to TRY you and to TEST your HEART and MIND, because you WALK in HIS FAITHFULNESS.   Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!   BE READY!!!
