Cross Reference


“All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.” II Timothy 3:16-17

“’Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your soul. For My yoke is easy, and My load is light.’” Matthew 11:28-30

One thing I was taught by those who discipled me, was how in the Bible, no one verse stands alone or apart from the rest of the teaching of Scripture. You only have to search the Scriptures to find others that harmonise and help “unfold” the meaning of the verses. The focus of the following weeks will be on the cross references that have been the most valuable in clarifying Psalm 139 for me. As you read through them, consider how knowing these, may help you better understand what the Lord is sharing with you through this wonderful Psalm.

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: Continue to pray for Carla and her family, especially her Mom.
