SAMECH ס 113-120,
Psa 119:113, I HATE THE DOUBLE-MINDED, BUT I LOVE YOUR LAW.
A double-minded person is not set in his ways! HE wants what GOD offers, but also wants what the world offers! NO ONE CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS, GOD OR MAMMON? Matt 6:24.
1Ki 18:21, And Elijah came to all the people, and said, “HOW LONG WILL YOU FALTER BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS? IF THE LORD IS GOD, FOLLOW HIM; BUT IF BAAL, FOLLOW HIM.” But the people answered him not a word.
We are either for HIM or against HIM; there is no middle ground, no other way!
Psa 119:115, Depart from me, you evildoers, For I will keep the commandments of my God!
The Psalmist was careful in choosing his friends; for bad habits are easily passed on from one to another! He wants nothing to distract him from following the LORD!
1Co 15:33, DO NOT BE DECEIVED: “EVIL COMPANY CORRUPTS GOOD HABITS.”
Psa 119:119, You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross; Therefore I love Your testimonies.
Dross is worthless, it takes away the shine of silver and makes it dull, and pretends to be gold but isn’t! So is a double-minded man; wine mixed with water
Isa 1:22, Your silver has become dross, Your wine mixed with water.
Jas 1:8, HE IS A DOUBLE-MINDED MAN, UNSTABLE IN ALL HIS WAYS.
AYIN ע 121-128
Psa 119:123, My eyes fail from seeking Your salvation And Your righteous word.
“He looked to God alone, he looked eagerly, he looked long, he looked till his eyes ached. The mercy is, that if our eyes fail, GOD DOES NOT FAIL, NOR DO HIS EYES FAIL.” (Spurgeon)
Psa 119:125, I AM YOUR SERVANT; GIVE ME UNDERSTANDING, That I may know Your testimonies.
The Psalmist has chosen his path, he is a servant of GOD and wants more understanding of HIM! WE TOO NEED TO CHOSE, EITHER HIS WAY OR OUR WAY! WE CANT HAVE BOTH! JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY TO THE FATHER!
