“Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.” - Psalms 119v165
How easily man tends to be offended and stumble in his walk with the Lord. Every one of us can remember times in our lives when our walk with God faltered. There is usually something that “sets it off” and causes us to stumble.
There is a sure fire cure for stumbling and taking offence. God says that those who love the word of God will not easily be offended. The New King James version has “nothing causes them to stumble.” The two meanings go hand in hand – when we are offended we tend to stumble in our walk.
When we learn to love the word of God it does many things for us. In this passage we see that it gives us great peace and allows us to avoid offence. May we learn to love God’s word in such away that we prosper from these promises.
