Psalms 119:165 How To Have GREAT PEACE

This is the Truth Network treasurers of .0 day in section anointing of the letter shin which has to do with knowledge and know what knowledge we have in store for you today as is. Certainly, this verse is challenging and also very beautiful, like oh my goodness. If there's a verse in there that I really really just love the quote is in my memorizing I love love love this verse challenging as it is, so I'll just go ahead and read it in English and imagining a change in your normally I read from the King James but the last couple words in the King James just destroyed the idea and so I'm in a trance like them. I guess just more in my version all right so great peace have they which love thy law and nothing shall make them stumble the way that isn't King James says nothing shall offend them but there's a huge difference between being offended and stumbling and so the word clearly is stumble can be more clear that stumble in Hebrew, and the idea is striping the stone the builders rejected as it became a stumbling block and and so with this critical understanding of this verse to realize that when we love the law like oh my goodness. When you fall more in love with Jesus. Obviously then you're not going to trip on him.

So you have this idea of nothing shall trip you up is absolutely no amazing and that word peace.

Of course, is the word that is the one that starts the beginning of the verse and so with the knowledge, is that they're trying to give you is what is the knowledge connected to peace or shalom, as we would know in Hebrew, which obviously features the letter shin and then alarm it and then you know clearly of the event a Mem Russians it clear but anyway there is the idea of this refining of this sheep that is chewing on God's word literally since Jesus is the word were chewing on them as we consider his law. I mean, when we are in a hit piece when were at work chewing on something that we just learned in the Scriptures how that looks and we continue to do that well you know that shin is there. That idea of chewing and then alarm. It has to do with our hearts right so your heart is chewing on these this idea of what's in the word and what is chewing on is literally connected to that via average Jacob's ladder which is connected to the Mem, which is Messiah Michiana or water, but the idea is as we sit or chew our hearts chew on this idea of machine arc. This idea of the kingdom, and of Jesus. Oh my goodness, what peace you have and you're not going to be offended.

In it, and I have so much to do with not struggling with iniquity, and of course are many, many, many verses that bidders describe how iniquity is connected to stumbling but when we dislike that practically. Or maybe I should just tell you that the different verses like here's an idea and almost like the whole book of Ezekiel Ezekiel 7 1914, 414 718 30, 2115 and 4412 all have to do with iniquity and not stumbling as Ezra 320 Jeremiah 622 Isaiah 814 and Isaiah 5714. Isaiah courses putting the stumbling block being literally Jesus that's good be the, the issue of iniquity. And so when you think about whatever the poor Pharisees unit. They were constantly this idea of iniquity is measuring ourselves against other people or this idea of it's just not fair.

So here these Pharisees are centered on it's not fair that this guy could be the Messiah even go through the same school. I get you it's not fair that he's got these gifts that he can heal people like you, none other stuff and all their stuff was just crazy. The iniquity that this made them stumble.

It was just absolutely horrific thing and how we get ourselves caught up in.

You know it's all about me.

Which is why fair becomes an issue when we think it's all about us and clearly we are going to stumble but as we chew on God's word right in there so many verses throughout the Psalm that Leno it that talk about order my steps in your word that not any iniquity would have dominion over me. Remember that that verse that we we did a few letters ago back in the pay section. As I recall, that is, we get more in love with Jesus. It becomes less and less about us and more and more about the kingdom and sweeps which we get this idea of the larger story that we have a place in it. But the story Jesus is the hero of the story of Ananias and so we ourselves get involved in iniquity and all of a sudden make ourselves part of the deal and that's more important than Jesus. For example of what what a challenge this verse is great peace have they which love thy law and nothing will make them stumble last night I was stumbling pretty good because you might know it was if you're listening to this today. I recorded it.

It is April 19 which is the day after tax day and you're right. Remember that yesterday's verse which talked about seven times a day often praise the because my righteous judgments. Well add a lot more than seven opportunities to do that yesterday because there was so much data doing my taxes that I felt like oh my goodness everywhere I turned things went awry in a the software was crashing. I think because everybody whether I watch the IRS or I went to tax layer.

It was crashing constantly. It's been so many people were trying to do their taxes less, and don't put this off until the last day, but I just had so much going Easter weekend.

I couldn't get to them. But all my goodness was I going to stumble terribly if I didn't have the verse from yesterday right which was in a seven times a day. All praise the because of a righteous judgments.

I was able to sit there through this unbelievable example of things gone wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong right up to buy my actual, I finally got it.

You know after I waited till like 10 o'clock and finally got enough bandwidth. I guess to get tax layer to do what I was supposed to do, then the IRS rejected both. They rejected my filing and so on. My goodness, what a wonderful thing to consider the challenge of this verse is what great peace have they which love thy law, and nothing shall cause them to stumble as we work through that verse almost daily thinking you know this panic more connected to the verse right before it is I think about it that if at seven times a day.

I can praise him because of his righteous judgments and all the things that go on my left.

All of a sudden it's a lot easier because it's gonna put me right back where you know I've got a call on him and I got a call on his word to process it. In order to have that great peace and and so I love how those verses fit together of iniquity, and this idea of not letting any iniquity have dominion over me so that I don't stumble that has to do with order my steps in your word, and so was I put all that together it's really a fun thing for me is if we can have a great city. Thanks for the
