Psalms119:94
The courage obedience gives.
1. It emboldens us to a firm assurance: "I am thine, for I have, " etc.
(a) We become God's by faith alone.
(b) But the assurance of being his cannot exist without obedience; obedience proves the faith to ourselves; satisfies us concerning grace received.
(c) Poor obedience always interferes with assurance.
2. It emboldens us to pray, and in prayer: "Save me."
(a) The Christian's prayers are only of faith and offered in faith.
(b) Yet disobedience makes: him shrink from approaching God in prayer, and renders him feeble in petitioning.
(c) Obedience is humble but bold. The middle clause of the text applies equally to the first and third clauses. J.F.
