For with them thou hast quickened me – <\/B>By them thou hast given me life, spiritual life. Compare the notes at Jam 1:18<\/span>. This is stated as a reason why he would never suffer the truth of God to pass out of his mind. By that truth he had been made really to live. He had been brought from spiritual death to spiritual life. He saw before him now, as the result of that, an endless career of blessedness. How could he ever forget what had worked such a change in his character and condition; which had inspired such hopes; which had opened before him such an immortal career of glory!<\/P><\/p>\n Verse 93<\/span>. I will never forget thy precepts<\/B><\/I>] How can I? It is by them I live<\/I>.<\/P> <\/p>\n Revived and cheered me, when my heart was ready to sink and die within me. <\/P> <\/p>\n 93.<\/B> The bounds of createdperfection may be defined, but those of God’s law in its nature,application, and influence, are infinite. There is no human thing soperfect but that something is wanting to it; its limits are narrow,whereas God’s law is of infinite breadth, reaching to all cases,perfectly meeting what each requires, and to all times (Psa 19:3<\/span>;Psa 19:6<\/span>; Psa 19:7-11<\/span>;Ecc 3:11<\/span>). It cannot be crampedwithin any definitions of man’s dogmatical systems. Man neveroutgrows the Word. It does not shock the ignorant man with declaredanticipations of discoveries which he had not yet made; while in itthe man of science finds his newest discoveries by tacitanticipations provided for. <\/P> <\/P> MEM.(Ps 119:97-104<\/span>). <\/P><\/p>\n I will never forget thy precepts<\/strong>,…. Not the precepts of the moral law, though he carefully observed and attended to them, laid them up in his mind, and did not forget to keep them; but the doctrines of the word, of the word which the Lord commanded to a thousand generations; these he endeavoured to remember, and not let them slip from him, since it follows:<\/p>\n for with them thou hast quickened me<\/strong>: not with the precepts of the moral law, which cannot give life, quicken a dead sinner, nor comfort a distressed saint it is the killing letter, and the ministration of condemnation and death: but the doctrines of the word, of the Gospel, which are spirit and life; the savour of life unto life, the means of quickening dead sinners, and of reviving drooping saints; of refreshing their spirits, and cheering their souls, when in distress: and when they are made thus useful, they are not easily forgotten, they leave impressions which do not soon wear off; and besides, saints are careful to remember such words and truths, which have been of use unto them, since they may have occasion for them again.<\/p>\n 93 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.<\/P> Here is, 1. A very good resolution: “I will never forget thy precepts,<\/I> but will always retain a remembrance of and regard to thy word as my rule.” It is a resolution for perpetuity, never to be altered. Note, The best evidence of our love to the word of God is never to forget it. We must resolve that we will never, at any time, cast off our religion, and never, upon any occasion, lay aside our religion, but that we will be constant to it and persevere in it. 2. A very good reason for it: “For by them thou hast quickened me;<\/I> not only they are quickening, but,” (1.) “They have been so to me; I have found them so.” Those speak best of the things of God who speak by experience, who can say that by the word the spiritual life has been begun in them, maintained and strengthened in them, excited and comforted in them. (2.) “Thou hast made them so;” the word of itself, without the grace of God, would not quicken us. Ministers can but prophesy upon the dry bones, they cannot put life into them; but, ordinarily, the grace of God works by the word and makes use of it as a means of quickening, and this is a good reason why we should never forget it, but should highly value what God has put such honour upon, and dearly love what we have found and hope still to find such benefit by. See here what is the best help for bad memories, namely, good affections. If we are quickened by the word, we shall never forget it; nay, that word that does really quicken us to and in our duty is not forgotten; though the expressions be lost, if the impressions remain, it is well.<\/P> <\/p>\n 93. I will never forget thy statutes. This verse contains a thanksgiving. As the law of the Lord had preserved him, he engages that he will never forget it. Yet he, at the same time, admonishes himself and others how necessary it is to cherish in the heart the remembrance of the Divine Law; for though we have found from experience its life-giving power, yet we easily allow it to pass from our memories, and on this account God afterwards justly punishes us, by leaving us for a long time to languish in our sadness. <\/p>\n Psa 119:93 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.<\/p>\n Ver. 93. I will never forget thy precepts<\/strong> ] That is, thy promises, which are as sure and firm as the commands of the most absolute monarch upon earth.
