Friday September 5th, 2014 Psalm 119:33-40
Give me understanding? (verse 34a)
What is the Spirit saying to the churches today? Do we have ears open enough to hear what the Spirit is telling us? I wonder if the Spirit is saying, “Don’t be tied to 16th century theology alone,” or perhaps, “Don’t rely only on 4th century creeds and doctrines!” If we really are to listen to the Spirit, I mean really open our hearts and minds up to what God the Spirit is saying to us now, it just might be “Open yourself to theologies of the 21st century.” Or just maybe God the Spirit is saying, “Make 21st century beliefs your creed.”
Lord, give me wisdom, give me insight, but above all, give me understanding. Amen. — KJB
