Psalm 18:19
19 He brought me forth [yatsa'] also into a large place; [merchab] he delivered [chalats] me,
because he delighted [chaphets] in me. KJV-Interlinear
19 He
brought me forth also into a broad place; He rescued me, because He delighted
in me. NASB
The world tries to hem
you in, choke you off, squeeze you, crowd you, destroy you. The world tries to restrict your thinking, limit
you options, make you conform to its standards.
While all the while the
world tries to convince you that you are progressive, liberated, free to
express yourself, have more options and opportunities than you could have
otherwise.
And it is all a lie. The
true intentions of the world are to discredit truth and keep you in the dark as
to the real dangers that surround you, never realizing that you are being
flooded and surrounded with such an onslaught that you could never break free.
And then, for those who
persevere in doctrine, God plucks you out of danger and sets you truly free.
God, through doctrine
brings you to a real place with real elbow room, and real options and real
opportunities, and real flexibility.
But God does this not for
arbitrary reasons, but because He is delighted in the person who possesses
doctrine.
Bible doctrine, or truth,
is the real object and target of Gods love.
Anyone who has doctrine in their soul, anyone who has pursued their
spiritual life, anyone who has real spiritual growth, becomes the object of
Gods eye not because of their dust makeup, but because of the truth content in
their soul.
Doctrine, is the true
target of Gods blessings. When you
possess doctrine within your soul, then you are blessed by association with
that doctrine. Since you as a mature
believer, possess doctrine, and all of the spiritual paraphernalia that
accompanies it, then you likewise become the possessor of its blessings.
This will be clarified in
the next verse.
The realm of truth is far
more vast than anything in or on this earth.
More options, more opportunities, more of every good thing, exist with
truth.
Good decisions, open more
doors of opportunity. Bad decisions
close all doors.
Bible doctrine, studying
it, learning it, utilizing it, possessing it, is the good decision.
