Psalm 119:2 “Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and seek him with the whole heart.” Comment: We are going to look at three Hebrew words in this scripture. We have already defined “Blessed”, in Psalm 119:1. So in verse two we have the word “keep”. Keep used here means to guard, protect, obey, preserve, as one who would guard a vineyard or a watchman on the wall! We are to protect and guard the Holy scriptures! Or do we get careless and allow the Bible to be removed from schools? To hide truth from our children and replace the truth with lies? The scriptures are to be preserved for future generations! The next Hebrew word is the word “testimonies”. The word means to be a witness! Like in a court trial! Testify to what you saw and heard! We are to take ownership of our testimony! Our whole Bible is a Book of Testimonies! Another Hebrew root word linked to the English word testimonies means to duplicate or repeat! So both Old and New Testament prophets duplicated or repeated what they saw and heard in the presence of God! The Old Testament prophets predicted the birth place and the time of Christ’s birth 600 years before the event! No guessing here! Let me give you an example of a 21st Century prophet! His name is Kim Clements. In 2007 he prophesized a man by the name of Trump will come to power in the highest office of our land! This was even before Obama was elected! Then in 2013 Kim mentions his first name Donald and says his political opposition will cry, Impeach! Impeach! Impeach! Yet he says they will fail! Today 2/5/2020, this prophecy will come to pass! Then Kim went on to say Trump will be re-elected in 2020! So a true prophet just repeats or duplicates what God has shown him! My testimony for Christ is what he has done for me! What he is speaking to me! It may or may not be for public knowledge! I had a vision of 9-11 months before the attack! I saw piles of white powder in the streets of New York City! I did not understand the vision until after it happened! Jesus raised me from the dead in 1973! That has been my testimony until now! When you hand out a Gospel Tract in a Walmart to a store clerk you are being a testimony! When you witness Christ in a prison you are being a testimony! When you preach the Gospel in a foreign land you are being a witness! The last word in verse two is the word “heart”. Our heart is the central motive of all our actions! It is the totality of man’s nature! The whole spectrum of human emotions come from your heart! Jesus said we must be born again! A new heart! Change my heart of God! Make it ever true! Mold me and make me to be just like you! Full of grace and mercy! Only Christ and his love for you can change you! Your witness for who will reveal who lives inside of you! James and Hamsa Sasse.
