Psalm 139 – Renovaré

Rabbi Kirk Gliebe notes that there is no way to come into right relationship with God by doing good deeds. It is only through faith in the atoning death and resurrection of Yeshua (Jesus). Rabbinic tradition holds that Adam’s and David’s words are recorded in Psalm 139 and possibly polished up during the Babylonian exile. The Psalm expresses the desire of the sovereign, self-existent God to bring us into right, intimate relationship with him. Time and distance being inconsequential, he has infinite capacity to know and care for each of us! We can embrace this intimacy, invite the Holy Spirit to intentionally search and affect us, surrender, and grow. The God who knows all, knows all about each of us – for eternity!
