“GOOD COUNSEL!”
Psalm 34:14
“Depart from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.”
I am frequently stunned by the wisdom to be found in the Word of God. The wisdom of man is often fickle and prone to error. This is not so with the truth of the Bible. It is the rock upon which we build our faith.
In the eleven words of Psalm 34:14 we find four things that we are to do that will bring about success in our life. First and perhaps the most important is to depart from evil. We are told that we are born in sin and in need of a new and spiritual rebirth. That is the first step we must take. We must be born again!
After our new birth we must commit to do good. That means seeking to know and then to do the will of the Lord. WWJD - What would Jesus do?
We are told in today’s Scripture that we are also to seek peace and pursue it. That means we are to constantly seek peaceful solutions to stressful situations. Once we think of a way to bring about a peaceful solution, we need to pursue it. That means we are to devote our efforts to think of others more than ourselves. That is what Jesus did and He is to be our constant example.
God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
