Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart

Psalm 119:1-16

Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the LordBlessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heartthey do no wrong but follow his ways.

Oh, that my ways were steadfast in obeying your decreesThen I would not be put to shame when I consider all your commandsI will praise you with an upright heart as I learn your righteous laws. I will obey your decrees; do not utterly forsake me.

I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.

With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth.

I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways.

Why?

Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the Low of the Lord.

The way to obey God's word is to remember God's word in my heart, second speak God's word and third meditate it in my mind.

Ask the Lord not to forsake me, even if we obey God's word, but sometimes for our weakness, we may forget God's word, so the psalmist prays to the Lord to help us to obey God's commands.

How?

Blessed is one who keeps God's statutes and seeks the Lord with all my heart.
