Hiding God’s Word In Your Heart - Psalm 119.9-16

9/8/2020

0 Comments

 
        How is it possible for you to be clean? When you are outside and you get dirty, you come in and take a shower using body wash or soap to clean the dirt away and make you feel clean. We need to think of the Word of God as the Body Wash, which can wash away the dirt. It can make our way clean again. How do we not miss this, the Word is the tool, but the real cleansing comes from having Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. When you ask Him into your heart, He will cleanse you from all unrighteousness (I John 1.9).
      This is not a safety net, something you can say, “See I asked Jesus into my life, I am good to go.” This is not how your life should be. Paul writes in Romans 6.1-2, “What shall we say then, shall we continue in sin that Grace may abound? God Forbid! How can we who are dead to sin live any longer there in?” What a great question. The Psalmist says if you want to cleanse your ways; take heed to God’s word. You have to want all of what God is giving to you and not just a piece of it. You must seek Him daily, learning from His commandments, which are given in love to keep you safe.
      There is no better way than to hide His Word with in your heart. Memorizing scripture allows you to recall it in times of need, when you are talking with someone about Christ or any other situation. The Psalmist says the best reason to know God’s word is so you will “not sin against Him” (vs.11). Amen.
      When you are in God’s Word then you are allowing God to teach you His Ways, Commandments, Statutes, and Precepts. You will find how wonderful and joyous God is. You will see His mercy and Grace. You will be over whelmed and want to declare all you know about God’s testimonies—those things He has done in your life. You will rejoice knowing how faithful God is in not giving you the judgement you deserved.
      All of this will lead you into a life of meditation, respect and delight for God’s Word. A love relationship with Him, like you have never had before.
 
Daily Application


  1. Are you reading God’s Word Daily? If not I want to encourage you to start today. Pick a book of the bible and read through it. When done, select another and so on.
  2. When was the last time you memorized scripture? Here are some verses to start with: Psalm 119:11, 105 – Matthew 14.26 – John 1.1, 3.16, 14.6 – Romans 3.23, 5.8, 6.23, 10.9,10, 13 – 1 John 1.9 – 1 John 5.13
  3. Take at least 10 minutes every day to read and meditate on God’s Word. Choose a passage as the Holy Spirit leads you, and think how this will help me today. As your day goes along recall that passage from time to time using it to strengthen your day and walk with God. 

​Prayer
 
       Lord, open my eyes to Your Word, that I may see the truths You have in store for me today. Help me to meditate on Your Word, to place Your Word within my heart so that I might not sin against Thee. Lord, Help me to have a better focus when it comes to spending time with You and being in Your Word and help me to block out all the distractions around me. Use this time and the day to draw me close to You. This I pray in Jesus Christ name Amen.
