Psalms 84:12
For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless. O Lord Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
Is our walk blameless? Well; it better be, for such ones have no good withheld from them by the Lord. 24 yrs. after God called Abraham, at the age of 99, the Lord appeared to him again and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me and be blameless. (Genesis 17:1)”And Abraham must have said to himself, “All these 24 years I have been doing that Lord”
But we read in the very next verse that God wanted to establish a covenant between Himself and Abraham and so He was asking him to renew his relationship with Him. Blameless means “being without guile” and “no good will the Lord withhold” from such a person. The Lord will be a sun and shield to such a person and bestow favor and honor too. Praise the Lord.
