Open vs. Opposed

Read:  Psalm 119:65-72 / Proverbs 28 / Exodus 8 / Acts 16 

 

Psalm 119:66,68 Teach me good judgment and knowledge... Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.

Proverbs 28:5 Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things.

Exodus 8:32 And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.

Acts 16:14 A certain woman named Lydia... whose heart the Lord opened... attended unto the things which were spoken.

 

The Lord is good, and He will teach

His judgment and His knowledge well

To open hearts that we may reach,

Though hardened hearts will still rebel. 

 

We see the choice that Pharaoh made:

Opposing God, his heart was hardened. 

In Lydia we see displayed

The joy when open hearts are pardoned.
