God’s Word Directs Your Path
Backgrounder on Psalm 119:
Psalm 119 is the longest psalm
and the longest chapter of the
longest book in the Bible. And
it provides the multifaceted Word
of God. Just as the psalm seems
to go on endlessly as you read its
176 verses, so let your praise and
love for God’s Word be endless
as you make it the focus of your
devotional time today & every day.
Lord, Your Word Directs Our Path:
Your Word I have hidden in my heart that I might Not Sin against U.
Your Word is a lamp for my
feet and a Light for my Path…
You are my refuge and my shield; Your Word is my only Source
of Hope (Ps 119:11, 105 & 114).
Lord, when I hide Your Word in
my heart, I can Keep From Sin.
Grant me the wisdom to seek You
and to hide your Word in my heart.
Grant me discernment to apply
Your truth to everyday situations.
Grant me faith when l am going
through difficult times. Amen.
Lord, I want to delight in your Word,
to obey it and to commit myself
to walking in the light it provides.
I praise you that Your Word Lights
the Path at my feet so that I don’t
have to wander in the darkness.
Guide me each day with your wonderful Word so that I will not
copy the customs of this world
but instead be transformed into
a new person in Christ. Amen.
Lord, how grateful I am that You
are my refuge and my shield.
Although my perspective is often
focused on the circumstances
around me, you already know
the outcome of your plans for
my life. In the midst of difficulties,
Your Word is my Source of Hope. Help me to Trust in You and gain
an eternal perspective. Amen.
