LORD, Teach Me To Follow Your Orders
Lord, teach me to follow your orders.
Then I will obey them to the very end.
Help me understand your law. Then I will follow it and obey it with all my
heart.
Teach me to live as you command, because that makes me very happy.
Make me want to follow your covenant laws instead of wanting to gain things
only for myself.
Turn my eyes away from things that are worthless. Keep me alive as you have
promised.
Keep your promise to me. Then other people will have respect for you.
Please don't let me be put to shame. Your laws are good.
I really want to follow your rules. Keep me alive, because you do what is
right.
Psalm 119:33-40
We, the followers of Christ, need to
have God’s Word in our hearts. Knowing the Bible is not a memory exercise, it
is something we should feel.
Memory of the Bible is good, as long as
it is not just memorizing. The life-giving wisdom of God’s Word is there to be
shared by one and all.
Let the Bible fill your mind, rule your
heart, and guide your life.
