Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path

Psalm 119:105-128

Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my pathI have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws. I have suffered much; preserve my life, Lord, according to your word. Accept, Lord, the willing praise of my mouth, and teach me your laws. Though I constantly take my life in my hands, I will not forget your law.

Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart.

I hate double-minded people,  but I love your lawYou are my refuge and my shield I have put my hope in your wordAway from me, you evildoers,  that I may keep the commands of my God! Sustain me, my God, according to your promise, and I will live;  do not let my hopes be dashedUphold me, and I will be delivered; I will always have regard for your decrees. You reject all who stray from your decrees, for their delusions come to nothing.

Why?
This is faithful in God's word, and I really know that the word of the Lord is important to everyone who loves the Lord.

Love the Lord is not a word in the mouth but in behavior and meditation in our hearts and shows up in our behavior.

The word of God is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path, so I won't miss my way to the Lord.

Double-minded people who like to get profit in this world and in heaven, so there will come to nothing in the end.

How?

Though I constantly take my life in my hands, I will not forget your law.
