Psalm 33:5a
He loveth righteousness and judgment:…
The Lord Loves These Two Things
When we love someone we want to give them things they love. Maybe your husband loves homemade chocolate chip cookies. My husband loves jello! I try to make it to give him what he loves. The Lord loves righteousness and judgment. When we determine to do things His way and evaluate things in the light of His standards, the Lord loves this. We aren’t supposed to be primarily motivated to do the right things in order to have a blessed life for ourselves. It should be our desire to honor and please Him. If you find yourself struggling with a sin, seek to overcome it with His help, to give Him something He loves. When the love of Christ constrains us, we will find resources and power not easily found in the self effort of trying to do the right thing.
