Guide and Guard

Read:  Psalm 119:9-16 / Proverbs 21 / Exodus 1 / Acts 9

 

Psalm 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

Proverbs 21:3 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.

Exodus 1:17 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded ... but saved the men children alive.

Acts 9:6 Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise... it shall be told thee what thou must do.

 

The Word of God is just and true;

Our hearts should hide it deep within

To guide us in the things we do

And also guard our hearts from sin. 

 

It teaches us to fear the Lord,

Like Egypt’s midwives and like Paul

Who found their purpose and reward 

 In their obedience to God’s call.
