Psa 111:1 Praise the LORD. I will extol the LORD with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly."

If God has created the earth according to His law, covenants, curses, decrees, promises, and statutes then He must create the desire to understand and give God all the glory for His works. So we live in God's garden where everything in the world must be redeemed. The Psalmist teaches "My heart says seek His face , Your face I will seek." When we meditate on the axioms we learn to ponder on God's works.

The Psalmist pronounces the axioms and pauses because he is reminded that God is the cause of everything in this world. He realizes that his life is a history of redemption. Whatever he has done in this world was caused by God. As he makes meditation  a discipline in his life he is drawn into seeing everything through recreation of the axioms.

 He must not only provide all that we need in this life but He must cause us to ponder on His works. You see the reality is not the motions of our lives but the illumination we receive as we pronounce the axioms. 111:2 Great are the works of the LORD; they are pondered by all who delight in them". We were made to spend our lives in seeing the world in the glass of the axioms. The people in the world will reason that we have waisted our lives in all the time of meditation. But since we live in a history of redemption we are reminded that we were made for God since He is the ruler and governor of this world.

So the Psalmist answers the questions. How can we survive if we spend all of our time pondering the works of God ?How can we be depended upon when we are seeking to be alone so we can ponder God's works ? Are we wise in using our time pondering the history of redemption?

The first question we must answer is " How are we related to this world? 111:3 Glorious and majestic are his deeds, and his righteousness endures forever." So the Psalmist is teaching that the world is a majestic display of God's works. We are dependent upon the creation to understand who we are. God made us as one piece of the diversity dependent upon one another to create unity.  Our view of the future is never correct because we naturally fear being dependent upon these parts that have been cursed . We must learn to push the curse down in our trials.

Since history is redemptive God must turn it upside down. So the things of the world are taken away from the owners. :6 He has shown his people the power of his works, giving them the lands of other nations. God is keeping a daily record of those who learn to be completely dependent upon Him enough to wait on Him for everthing . We are always tempted  to trust in our own ability. But if we begin to see the world behind the glass we will learn to depend on God by being in awe of His masterpiece.AR
