Have you ever spent much time digging into Psalm 119?
Most people seem to dread it because it is so long.
But it is one of my favorite Psalms. It’s all about God’s Word. Completely. In fact, I counted 178 references to God’s Word in 176 verses. That’s pretty incredible to me.
This week’s passage is one of the more well known parts of this Psalm. Take look for yourself. It’s Psalm 119:9-11:
What keeps us on the path that God desires for us? Following his Word.
How do we seek to stay pure? By living according to God’s Word.
What prevents sin from gaining a foothold in our lives? By hiding God’s Word in our hearts.
That would be memorization. And that’s why I do this every week.
I can see God’s Word as very active in my life? Can you?

Proverbs 3:5-6 is one of my favorites.
I love that passage!
I’m enjoying the reminder to memorize Scripture. So far the passages you’ve placed have been passages I memorized in the past but hadn’t reviewed in a while. This has been good for me. Keep it coming.
I’ve got several excellent passages in store for the year. I’ve memorized several of them in the past, but decided to include them to refresh them in my memory again. Thanks!
