Psalm 119: 121-128 NLT

1.What did the psalmist ask for in order to understand God’s statutes (v. 125)?
2.How did the psalmist describe God’s commands (v. 127)?
3.How much do you treasure God’s commands? How is this shown in the way you live?

1. The psalmist asked for discernment. Deeper understanding. One that God impresses.
2. More than the finest gold, more than the most precious jewel in all the world.
3. I treasure it with all my heart. The question is, do I really show and act that I do?

In Reflection:

"Don’t leave me to the mercy of my enemies, for I have done what is just and right."
-Psalm 119:121,NLT-

Lord, this is my cry now. I know I have disappointed You again in many ways. Lord, I really find it quite difficult to obey You though my heart badly needs to obey You. Father, please do not let go of me. I need to be in Your hands. I want to do what is right but I am overcome by the world most of the time. Lord, I cry out to You. Have mercy on me.
I feel like I am alone. Please be here, there and everywhere with me. I want to just obey You and follow You. I will choose You above anything else. Lord, lead me not into temptation but deliver me from evil, amen.
