Believe Again - Part Four - God's Rules

NOTES:

How I delight in your commands! How I love them!

Psalm 119:47 (NLT)

If your instructions hadn’t sustained me with joy, I would have died in my misery.

Psalm 119:92 (NLT)

As pressure and stress bear down on me, I find joy in your commands.

Psalm 119:143 (NLT)

1. God’s Rules PROTECT Us.

2. God’s Rules FREE Us.

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.”

James 1:22, 25, NLT

3. God's Rules SHAPE Us. 

All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.

2 Timothy 3:16-17, NLT

BOTTOM LINE:
God’s boundaries aren’t BURDENS; they’re BLESSINGS.

THE CHALLENGE:
DELIGHT in God’s Word daily.
