“Blessed are they whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the LORD.”
Blameless in God's Eyes:
In other words, Ways of a man are blameless, when he walks according to the law (Word of God, The Bible, The Book) of the LORD (Father in Heaven). We can keep us blameless by walking according to the Bible. Blameless in man’s eyes, is not what it means. Human standards are far far lower than God’s and cannot be compared with God's standard at all. Blameless in God’s eyes is different from blameless in man’s eyes.
But how can we, sinful men follow God’s commandments?
As I usually say, and the fact is, we cannot. We can do it neither in our own self-strength nor by our mental or physical strength. We can live according to God’s law, only through the power of God, The Holy Spirit (The Third Person of the Trinity). Romans 8:13 says, “…For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.” PS 119:9 – “How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your word.”
- How can we walk according to the law of the LORD, without even knowing it?
So start reading the Bible to know the law of the LORD earnestly and sincerely. Seek Holy Spirit’s help to keep and obey and follow and apply and act on the Word of God.
John 8:32 - “...you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free”. Jesus is the truth; Bible is the truth; because the Word of God and Jesus are one and the same.
- Free from what?
Free from sin, free from hell (eternal destruction), free from your turmoil and hardship in the spiritual and physical realm.
And the one, who walks in the ways of the LORD, is blessed. If Bible says, blessed, you will be blessed indeed. No doubht about it, because Word of God is absolute truth and it stands forever.
- What does it mean ‘blessed’ by the way?
All the blessings written in the Bible belongs only to those who follow God’s Word. So make yourselves eligible to to receive the blessing and allow God to bless you.
Questions to ask ourselves:
- Am I worthy to be blessed by God? Now?
- Are my way blameless?
- Am I blameless in God’s eyes?
- Do I know the law of the LORD?
- Am I spending time to know the law of the LORD?
Think about it and answer yourselves, examine yourselves.
