I Get Understanding

 

 

Oh, how I love your law! It is my meditation all day long. Your commandment makes me wiser than my enemies, for it is always with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your decrees are my meditation. I understand more than the aged, for I keep your precepts. I hold back my feet from every evil way, in order to keep your word. I do not turn away from your ordinances, for you have taught me. How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.

 

Psalm 119:97-104

 

Do you have a spiritual hunger for the Word of God? Anyone who gets excited about the Bible can be a reminder to all of us to get charged up. It is all too easy for us to ignore God’s Book in a world filled with voices screaming for our attention. But only in the Bible can we find God’s wisdom for our struggles, God’s answers for our questions, and God’s truths for our understanding.

 

Study the Bible to be wise;

believe it to be safe;

 practice it to be holy.
