Blameless


For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does He withhold from those whose walk is blameless.

 

Psalm 84:11



What does it really mean to be a person who is blameless before God?

 

Being blameless before God does not mean we are perfect—no human being is perfect. It means that we so fully trust in God that we are willing to make things right when we fail. We are willing to humble ourselves continually before the throne of God.

 

 "...Blessed is the man who trusts in You" (Psalm 84:12).

 

God has a specific plan for those who fully trust in Him and He promises to be their shield, to bestow honor on them—He will not withhold any good thing from them.

 

What a promise… what motivation to be all that we can be in God by the empowering Spirit from within us.

Live life as God views it—blameless!

 

I pray that God would make known to us that we do live lives that are blameless before Him, as we seek to dig deeper into the great things that He has in store for us.
