Psalm 119:33-37
Teach me, O LORD to follow your decrees; then I will keep them to the end. Give me understanding, and I will keep your law and obey it with all my heart. Direct me in the path of your commands, for there I find delight. Turn my heart toward your statutes and not toward selfish gain. Turn my eyes away from worthless things; preserve my life according to your word.
Things God does in this passage:
- Teaches me
- Gives me understanding
- Directs me in the path of his commands
- Turns my heart and eyes
- Preserves my life
Things that result
- I keep God's decrees
- I keep God's laws and obey them with all my heart
- I find delight in God's commands
- I turn away from selfish things
WOW! What a great God to do all those things for us! May we rest in the power of God to teach us, direct us, guide us towards him and preserve us! May we respond in obedience, delighting in his ways and turning away from the selfish things we're so often distracted by!
