Psalm 119:161-168

 ש Sin and Shin
 ¹⁶¹ Rulers persecute me without cause,

   like one who finds great spoil.
¹⁶³ I hate and detest falsehood
   but I love your law.
¹⁶⁴ Seven times a day I praise you
   for your righteous laws.
¹⁶⁵ Great peace have those who love your law,
   and nothing can make them stumble.
¹⁶⁶ I wait for your salvation, LORD,
   and I follow your commands.
¹⁶⁷ I obey your statutes,
   for I love them greatly.
¹⁶⁸ I obey your precepts and your statutes,
   for all my ways are known to you.

Psalms 119:161-168

Those whose hearts stand in awe of God's word, will rather endure the wrath of man, than break the law of God. By the word of God we are unspeakable gainers. Every man hates to have a lie told him, but we should more hate telling a lie; by the latter we give an affront to God. The more we see the beauty of truth, the more we shall see the hateful deformity of a lie. We are to praise God even for afflictions; through grace we get good from them. Those that love the world have great vexation, for it does not answer what they expect; those that love God's word have great peace, for it outdoes what they expect. Those in whom this holy love reigns, will not perplex themselves with needless scruples, or take offence at their brethren. A good hope of salvation will engage the heart in doing the commandments. And our love to the word of God must subdue our lusts, and root out carnal affections: we must make heart work of it, or we make nothing of it. We must keep the commandments of God by obedience to them, and his promises by reliance on them. God's eye is on us at all times; this should make us very careful to keep his commandments.

Psalms 119:153-160

The closer we cleave to the word of God, both as our rule and as our stay, the more assurance we have of deliverance. Christ is the Advocate of his people, their Redeemer. Those who were quickened by his Spirit and grace, when they were dead in trespasses and sins, often need to have the work of grace revived in them, according to the word of promise. The wicked not only do not God's statutes, but they do not even seek them. They flatter themselves that they are going to heaven; butthe longer they persist in sin, the further it is from them. God's mercies are tender; they are a fountain that can never be exhausted. The psalmist begs for God's reviving, quickening grace. A man, steady in the way of his duty, though he may have many enemies, needs to fear none. Those that hate sin truly, hate it as sin, as a transgression of the law of God, and a breaking of his word. Our obedience is only pleasing to God, and pleasant to ourselves, when it comes from a principle of love. All, in every age, who receive God's word in faith and love, find every saying in it faithful.

Dear Friends,

President Barack Obama has refused to condemn the Muslim Brotherhood, which has ties to Hamas and Al-Qaida; but it is a dangerous organization that's being downplayed by the President, who says it will play a small part in any government coalition, representing just 20% of the population.

This is nonsense!

There is no government where a radical Islamic faction had 20% control and within 5 years did not have complete control of the government. The Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization - it's operating in the USA! - and it must not be allowed to make a power play in Egypt.

Please let the President know his tolerance for terrorists is unacceptable! Join thousands who have already signed the Petition for a Democratic Egypt and tell President Barack Obama to say no to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, and to do everything he can to promote a true democracy where human rights and religious freedom are protected - including keeping the peace with Israel.

As the crisis continues in Egypt, I want you to know - we're close to finishing production on an explosive new ACLJ film that alerts Americans to the clear and present danger of the radical Islamic threat ... not just to Egypt ... but to the world.

''The Export: Radical Islam's Map to the End of Democracy'' lays bare the plan of radical Islam to force Shariah law onto America, to claim the entire Middle East as a Muslim state, to annihilate Israel, and then turn their aggression on this nation.

I strongly encourage you to watch the high-impact trailer online right now.

Thanks for standing with us against radical terrorism and for the preservation of freedom.

Sincerely,

Jay Sekulow
ACLJ Chief Counsel

Your Mercy Endureth Forever

   and I will obey your decrees.
¹⁴⁶ I call out to you; save me
   and I will keep your statutes.
¹⁴⁷ I rise before dawn and cry for help;
   I have put my hope in your word.
¹⁴⁸ My eyes stay open through the watches of the night,
   that I may meditate on your promises.
¹⁴⁹ Hear my voice in accordance with your love;
   preserve my life, LORD, according to your laws.
¹⁵⁰ Those who devise wicked schemes are near,
   but they are far from your law.
¹⁵¹ Yet you are near, LORD,
   and all your commands are true.
¹⁵² Long ago I learned from your statutes
   that you established them to last forever.

Psalms 119:145-152

Supplications with the whole heart are presented only by those who desire God's salvation, and who love his commandments. Whither should the child go but to his father? Save me from my sins, my corruptions, my temptations, all the hinderances in my way, that I may keep thy testimonies. Christians who enjoy health, should not suffer the early hours of the morning to glide away unimproved. Hope in God's word encourages us to continue in prayer. It is better to take time from sleep, than not to find time for prayer. We have access to God at all hours; and if our first thoughts in the morning are of God, they will help to keep us in his fear all the day long. Make me lively and cheerful. God knows what we need and what is good for us, and will quicken us. If we are employed in God's service, we need not fear those who try to set themselves as far as they can out of the reach of the convictions and commands of his law. When trouble is near, God is near. He is never far to seek. All his commandments are truth. And God's promises will be performed. All that ever trusted in God have found him faithful.
