Walking in the Light of the Word

"I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” Psalm 119:11

It never fails to amaze me to seethe fruit God brings from memorizing and meditating on His Word.

As I mentioned yesterday I’ve been rememorizing Psalm 19. Doing this has:

  • refreshed old insights
  • reminded me of the wonders of God’s Word and how He gives us so much through it.
  • opened my eyes in a deeper way to see how trustable He is.
  • gave me multiple opportunities to share portions of it with others.
  • used it to bring significant truths to bear in a discussion I had.
  • drew me again into seeing how weak and sin-prone I am, nurturing humility in me.
  • directed my gaze again to God being my mighty rock and redeemer.

All of this came from rememorizing; without that I would have missed all these insights and growth.

So I encourage you, too, to memorize Scripture. Start with Psalm 19:7-14. Do one verse a day, reviewing the others.

When you are done, spend a couple of weeks praying through it each day and taste the delights of knowing God better.

"Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law” Psalm 119:18, and He will!
