I Trust In Your Word
Teach me, O LORD, the way of your
statutes, and I will observe it to the end. Give me understanding, that I may
keep your law and observe it with my whole heart. Lead me in the path of your
commandments, for I delight in it. Turn my heart to your decrees, and not to
selfish gain. Turn my eyes from looking at vanities; give me life in your ways.
Confirm to your servant your promise, which is for those who fear you. Turn
away the disgrace that I dread, for your ordinance are
good. See, I have longed for your precepts; in your righteousness give me life.
Let your steadfast love come to me, O
LORD, your salvation according to your promise. Then I shall have an answer for
those who taunt me, for I trust in your word. Do not take the word of truth
utterly out of my mouth, for my hope is in your ordinances. I will keep your
law continually, forever and ever. I shall walk at liberty, for I have sought
your precepts. I will also speak of your decrees before kings, and shall not be
put to shame; I find my delight in your commandments,
because I love them. I revere your commandments, which I love, and I will
mediate on your statutes.
Do you read the Bible, or do you study
it? If you study what it says you realize that, in essence, it is God’s Rule
Book for our lives. It is divinely inspired. You cannot come away from studying
it without being changed. You need to read it, study it, and put its teachings
into place.
Studying the
Bible is one sure way to improve your soul health.
