Psalm 40:5


Copyright  2016 J. Neely
Psalm 40:5

5 Many [rab], O LORD [Yahovah] my God ['elohiym], are thy wonderful [pala'] works which thou hast done [`asah], and thy thoughts [machashabah] which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order [`arak] unto thee: if I would declare [nagad] and speak [dabar] of them, they are more [`atsam] than can be numbered [caphar].   KJV-Interlinear

5 You have multiplied, O LORD my God, your wondrous deeds and your thoughts toward us; none can compare with you! I will proclaim and tell of them, yet they are more than can be told. ESV

Multiplied, means beyond numbering. Wonderful, refers to an experience beyond imagination.

Gods thoughts are directed toward us. We have access to Gods thoughts by means of the written Scriptures.

Gods plans, purposes, arrangements, are all designed for our welfare, for our benefit, for our destiny.

Before time began, in eternity past, God conceived of each and every one of us. Therefore, we are linked from the very beginning, from before time, to the most phenomenal life and destiny, that is beyond human comprehension.

The blessings are beyond counting. However, our access to blessings comes to each one of us, in the simplest of forms, namely by means of Bible doctrine.

Despite all of the many plans, and abilities, and efforts of human life, no effort on our part can come anywhere near matching what God has done with mere words that are written in the Bible.

By learning Bible doctrine through instruction, and learning it on a daily basis, because it is the food of our soul, we gain access to the most sophisticated plan, in all of existence, which is Gods plan.

Unfortunately, too many never figure this out, because they are so caught up in their own belief systems, and in arrogance, that puts up a barrier, that prevents them from seeing the simplest means of success.

No one and nothing can compare with Gods plan, and Gods design.

Gods plan and blessings are so thorough, and so innumerable, and so vast, that even if we studied the Bible in detail from cover to cover, several times, we would still barely scratch the surface of that vast treasure.

And so the most important thing that we can do in life, is to commit ourselves to a study of the word of God on a daily basis, for our entire life, and by that, gain access to a plan that is infinitely better than anything that we could do for ourselves.

To ignore such an opportunity, would be the act of a fool.

Study [by instruction],
to show thyself approved [spiritually mature]
unto God,
a workman [student]
that need not be ashamed [ignorant],
rightly dividing [learning, understanding, discerning]
the word of truth [Bible doctrine].





These studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever. 

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever.  To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment.  No one else can study for you.  You have to do that yourself.
