Psalm 119:9-16

How can a young man keep his way
pure?
By keeping your Word.

This is a great question for all of us at any age. Not just the young.

But starting young makes the discipline, the practice, of keeping the Lord’s Word a habit, a normal, expected, usual part of life.

And how do we do that at any age?

  • Seek the Lord, with all my heart.
  • Treasure His word in my heart (to guard against sin.)
  • Learn His statutes – what God requires.
  • Proclaim the Lord’s Word.
  • Rejoice in the Word – it’s a great gift.
  • Meditate on the Word, not just learn it, spend all day thinking about it, dwelling on it, As well as devoted meditation time.
  • Delight in the Word – find it pleasing.
  • Remember the Word – a natural result.

The Word of God, for the man of God!

Keep it!

More of this, ultimately abandoned illustration. I really wanted this idea to work, but, as I often do, overworked it until I lost it. But, the idea is still here.
