The Lord Will

Psalm 119:155

β€œSalvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 119

Meaning

Resh (vv.153–160) contrasts the servant's repeated seeking with persistent rejection of God's statutes.

Resh

Affliction prompts repeated pleas for deliverance and life grounded in mercy and the truth of God's word.

Read carefully

The verse warns about a path of rejecting God's statutes; it does not authorize humans to declare final destinies.

Reflection

Pay attention to whether your habits actually move toward truth and justice.
