Psalm 40 talks about 3 important things in the
Christian life.
1) Seeking the Lord - We need to seek the Lord
with all of our hearts. The Bible tells us those who seek the Lord do not lack
any good thing. Seeking the Lord makes our hearts glad and helps our minds to
be stayed upon him. The Lord has promised perfect peace for whose mind is stayed
upon him.
2) Trusting the Lord – Psalm 40 says blessed is
the man who makes the Lord his trust. We need to trust the Lord because he is
our creator and our Father and that He loves us. He has demonstrated his
unconditional love by sending his own son for us. When we understand how much
God loves us, then we can trust him with all our hearts. We need to acknowledge
him in all our ways and he will direct our paths.
3) Magnifying the Lord - We need to magnify the
Lord above all our circumstances and problems. If we magnify the Lord then our
problems shrink down to their right perspective. We can magnify the Lord by
meditating on his promises, praising him for his blessings and reminding
ourselves of all the things he has done for us before. He will deliver us from
all our problems.
