“My son forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.”   Proverbs 3:1-2





For a train to be able to continue in the direction that it is traveling there must be two individual rails laid down beside one another.  These make up the tracks.  Now spiritually speaking from our text we are to have our mind as one rail and our heart as the other rail and these two will make up the track that our lives will travel upon.  We remember God’s law with our minds.  We set God’s word into our minds as we read it and meditate upon it. This way we will not forget it!  Allow your heart to be a harbor that keeps God’s commandments in it.  With the mind and heart given to God’s Word there will be less space available for the world’s junk and room for the devil to roam.  The importance of daily consumption of God’s Word is vital to both mind and heart and this will In turn have a direct effect on choices and decisions one makes.  It will also greatly affect our position (i.e. closeness to God or fellowship with the world).  Don’t forget to forget not.

No one will ever be able to make the argument that they were able to live a life that was void of God; filled with sin and empty of God’s Word and commandments and that any good was added to such a life.  But the life of those who forget not and keep God’s commandments will be blessed with length of days, long life and peace. Read verse two again and specifically, “Shall they add to thee.”  The word “they” is speaking of God’s law and commandments.  Matthew Henry wrote, “As grace increases, peace shall increase; and of the increase of Christ’s government and peace, in the heart as well as in the world, there shall be no end.  Great and growing peace have those that love the law.”  God’s Word leads one to God and in any and every situation in life God’s promises will be an anchor for the troubled soul; a light in the dark and strength that endures  Proverbs 4:13 says, “Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is life.”
