    This is probably the oldest Psalm in the Bible, and was composed by Moses during the 40 years wandering of the children of Israel in the wilderness. There is so much spiritual profit in meditating this Psalm but, at the moment, fix your attention on v.9.

    The Lord, who created our eyes, tongue, hands, heart, feet, lips and spirit, is vexed and grieved when we use them for evil. When we do, our bodies which were meant to be the temples of God’s Spirit become anatomical abominations!

    Intro: The human body is a marvellous creation – so complex and yet so beautiful (Psa. 139:14). Each of our organs has its special function. Working together in harmony under the brain’s direction, our members enable the body to live, work play and worship. We are strictly warned by God never to ...read more
