Ask the Spirit to guide you as you read God’s word for today. Remember to read the entire passage.

Psalm 119:160

“The sum of your word is truth,
and every one of your righteous rules endures forever.”
Psalm 119:160

God’s word is __________.
How long do God’s rules endure?
In a world that is constantly trying to make up their own morality, you can be certain of one thing. God’s word is truth and it does not change. I encourage you to dig deep into His word to find answers to the questions of today. Is there a moral question that is nagging at you? Write it down and then search the Bible to find it’s answer.

In a world where humans attempt to justify and make excuses… God’s word stands as the only moral truth! Praying His wisdom and discernment as you search His word for guidance in this crazy world. Praying for you!

Ask the Spirit to guide you as you read God’s word for today. Remember to read the entire passage.

Psalm 119:9-16

“I will delight in your decrees
and not forget your word.“
Psalm 119:16

How can we keep our way pure?
We can guard our life according to His word… the remainder of this passage gives us the how to manual for guarding our heart…
How should we seek Him?
How do we avoid sin?
How do we seek Him, write down the action words taken from verses 13-16.
We are called to seek after the Lord, praise Him, implore Him, crave Him, and delight in Him. Ask the Lord to guide you as you store His word in your heart and seek after His ways.

We serve an awesome God. One who wants us to know Him and to seek after Him. He has blessed us with His word may we crave it… pour over it… delight in it! It truly is the God of the Universe speaking directly to you! Praying for you!

How to Act Like a True Christian – Digging Deep Into Romans 12:9-21

“Repay no one evil for evil.”
Romans 12:17a

Ask the Spirit to guide you as you read God’s word for today. Remember to read the entire passage.

” For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that should be God’s will, than for doing evil.”
1 Peter 3:17

As humans our immediate reaction is to lash out… or react to whomever is doing us harm. But, what does Romans 12:17a about how we are called to react?
How does 1 Peter 3:17 bring clarity to the Romans passage?
We are not facing this alone… what does 2 Timothy 1:7 tell us about the Spirit in us?
God has given us a Spirit of power and self control. He is our strength. Claim Psalm 119:14-15 now & use it whenever you feel attacked.

“You are my hiding place and my shield;
I hope in your word.
Depart from me, you evildoers,
that I may keep the commandments of my God.”
Psalm 119:14-15

Do good… and remember – Jesus has overcome the evil of this world! Praying for you!

Ask the Spirit to guide you as you read God’s word for today.

Read Psalm 119:9-16

All of Psalm 119 is an expression of love for God’s Law and for His word. The psalmist gives us beautiful insight into how to stay close to God through His word.

I have stored up your word in my heart,
that I might not sin against you.
Psalm 119:11

Make a list of action words used in this passage. What does this reveal about how you should apply and grow in God’s word?
Share how storing (or hiding) God’s word in your heart could impact you. How could you see yourself using it in your day-to-day life?
As the psalmist did in Psalm 119:12-16, write your praises to God for His precepts, laws, statutes & decrees.
CHALLENGE: Think of a verse that has spoken to you in the past. Memorize it so that it is stored in your heart forever.

Leave a comment and share what God revealed to you today! I will be praying for you!
