Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

We must carefully treasure up the word of God, declare it to others, meditate on it, and heartily delight in it; and then by His grace we shall act according to it.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

In the way of God's commandments I can truly say, Soul, take thy ease; " in true religion there is all riches, the unsearchable riches of Christ. He looks forward with a holy resolution never to cool in his affection to the word of God; what he does that he will do, 2 Cor. xi. Those that have found pleasure in the ways of God are likely to proceed and persevere in them.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

When he knew God had heard his declaration of his ways he did not say, "Now, Lord, tell me my lot, and let me know what the event will be;" but, "Now, Lord, tell me my duty; let me know what thou wouldst have me to do as the case stands." Note, Those who in all their ways acknowledge God may pray in faith that he will direct their steps in the right way.
