What's Your View?

One of the things we examined yesterday was the psalmist's view of God as expressed in Psalm 119:68.  We also examined how this view of God impacted his view of the circumstances in his life, specifically the affliction he has experienced (verses 57, 69, 71).  Today we want to carry that a step further, and make our observations a bit more personal. 

According to  A. W. Tozer, nothing is more important than our view of God.  That view affects every area of our lives.  So that's where we will dig in today.

The questions for you to consider today concern your view of God.   We have spent a lot of our study time over these last several weeks examining the claims the Bible (through the pen of the psalmist) makes about itself.  Today we want to dig into the Scriptures to find out what God says about Himself.  If you are wondering where to begin, think about this:  the psalmist knew God's Law.  He was familiar with the Torah (what we know as the first five books of the Bible). It was through these Scriptures that he learned about God, so why not use those books as well?  Investigate these passages to see what you can learn.
  • Genesis 17:1-8
  • Exodus 3
  • Exodus 34:6-7
  • Deuteronomy 6
Set aside some time today to "be still and know" (Psalm 46:10).  Consider your view of God.  Is your view of God aligned with His truth? 

"You are good, and do good."  (Psalm 119:68)
