Psalm 119:43 “Never take your word of truth from my mouth, for I have put my hope in your laws.” You and I always want to remain faithful to our God. We always want to share the hope only He provides both on this earth and eternally. The hope or confidence only He can provide is essential to our security and happiness while we experience life. We praise and thank Him for having chosen each of us to be His adopted children.

Psalm 119:41 “May your unfailing love come to me, Lord, your salvation, according to your promise;” God’s love for you and me is beyond our comprehension. His desire for His children (you and me) to be with Himself is also the best news we will ever hear. The fact that our eternal life with Him is guaranteed is unfathomable. How could any of us not want to honor and be faithful to our Almighty God.

Psalm 119:40 “How I long for your precepts! In your righteousness preserve my life.” Every Christian has a strong desire to live the life God wants him/her to live. There is never a whimsical attitude of take it or leave it. Every Christian desires a life of purpose, following God’s path, studying His Word and both living and telling His story. How blessed we are as we follow His guidance.

Psalm 119:37 “Turn my eyes away from useless things; preserve my life according to your word.” This passage speaks directly to living with worthwhile purpose. Anything we do on this earth which brings us to a closer relationship with our God is worthwhile and anything which does not is worthless: maybe not only worthless, but detrimental.Focus on purposeful living with Heaven as our goal and earth as our preparation location.

Psalm 119:35 “Direct me in the path of your commands, for there I find delight.” Nothing is more obvious than the need for a baby to be cared for and directed. As that baby matures to be one, then 2, then 4, then 10 the need is continually extremely important but not as seemingly obvious. How about when that child becomes 20, then 50, even at 70 there is still a need for the contents of this passage. There is never a time in life, in everyone’s life, that God’s direction is not needed. Your and my prayer is a constant: God direct me. Have a great weekend.

Psalm 119:34 “Give me understanding, so that I may keep your law and obey it with all my heart.” Our Psalmist has a sincere ask of his Savior. You and I have the identical request as does every child of God. And the request is not only very sincere, but the request also involves the entire being of a person. “with all my heart” is not just a pretty group of words. it involves utmost sincerity–identical to Jesus’ love for each of us.

Psalm 119:33 “Teach me, Lord, the way of your decrees, that I may follow it to the end.” Of all the teachers in the world there is no one who compares to The Teacher. Our Teacher is God Himself. If we really want to learn, if we really want to be educated, if our heart and soul wants success, there is but one Teacher: our Lord and Savior. Study His lessons.

Psalm 119:27 “Cause me to understand the way of your precepts, that I may meditate on your wonderful deeds.” You and I continually pray for understanding and wisdom. We do that because without those two things we walk in a hazy fog with a lack of receiving the benefits of being a blessed child of God. The more we know about our Creator the more peace and security we enjoy on this earth and the more we can look forward for an eternal life of luxury which surpasses anything we can dream of in this life.

Psalm 119:16 “I gave an account of my ways and you answered me; teach me your decrees.” Our lives involve a constant conversation with our Heavenly Father. Our constant conversation/prayer involves: this is what I have done, this is what I would like to do, help me fulfill Your purpose for me on this earth. Isn’t it wonderful to have the Great Teacher walking at your side with every step you take?

Psalm 119:24 “Your statutes are my delight; they are my counselors.” If you were to do a study entitled–why do people go to a counselor or therapist–you would find the basic reason is: a person is struggling from emotional or mental anxiety and needs support to relax. You can do this study on your own and come to a conclusion which is the exact purpose of this passage. God knows all of us need His constant support to live in peace. We need Him by our side. We need to continually study His assurances. Our God loves each of us which is a fact many of us easily forget. That is a great reason to read and apply His Word to our personal lives.

Psalm 119:20 “My soul is consumed with longing for your laws at all times.” Every faithful child of God is continually serving his/her Heavenly Father. Because none of us is perfect we need a Savior. The wonderful news is: God sent Jesus. We are safe and saved. We praise God continually because of this absolutely wonderful news.

Psalm 119:19 “I am a stranger on earth; do not hide your commands from me.” Many consider life on earth the epitome of existence. Earth is where everything happens. Life on earth is all there is so make the most pleasure possible. Even as Christians we fall for this kind of thinking and forget to ask–what is God’s purpose for our life on this earth–and live according to that purpose. Keep always in our mind–Heaven is our Home; our future looks fantastic!
