Keeping your way pure by living according to God's word.
PSALM 119:9-16
9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word.
10 I seek you with all my hearts; do not let me stray away from your commands.
11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.
12 Praise be to you; O Lord; teach me your decrees.
13 With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth.
14 I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches.
15 I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways.
16 I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your word.
In series 38, we looked at the two major pronounced blessings for those that are blameless and upright in their ways. Today's verses of the same chapter is specifically directed to the young men and women. The period of our youth is the formative and most critical time of every man/woman. If properly managed and channeled towards knowing God could become a fountain of knowledge and a source of light to our paths in leading us to a life of fulfilment and blamelessness before our marker. The best time to know God and live according to the precepts of God is in your youth when the evil days haven't come.
Oh Lord, grant me understanding as I study and follow your words. Let your words shine light unto my paths and direct me in accordance to your will for my life. Let your words breathe life into me and keep me heavenly bound in Jesus' name... (AMEN!)
