Delighting in His Decrees

Our scriptures for this week are Psalm 119:9-16

How can a young person stay on the path of purity?

    By living according to your word.

10 

I seek you with all my heart;

    do not let me stray from your commands.

11 

I have hidden your word in my heart

    that I might not sin against you.

12 

Praise be to you, 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.

The questions to ask yourself--

1.  Am I living in light of this verse?

2.  Am I taking this scripture seriously?

3.  If I believe and hold to this scripture, what difference will it make in my life?

4.  What does this passage teach me about God?

Questions adapted from Tim Keller's book Prayer.

Have a great week.
