Your Law is My Delight (5 of 5)
Series: Life By the Book: A Study of Psalm 119
Scott Maze
Psalm 119:174-175
All of Psalm 119 is read before me (22 readers reading eight verses each).
Today we conclude our series, Life By the Book. The psalmist takes 176 verses to motivate us to get into the Bible and get the Bible into us. If you’ll continue to keep Psalm 119 open with me (page 611 in your Black pew Bibles in front). I want you to elevate your attitude toward the Bible to a higher level. I want you to coordinate your prayers and your Bible study to transform your life to conform to the image of Jesus Christ.
My Greatest Habit
My greatest single habit is to read the Bible each and every day. I’m not perfect, and I miss a day every so often. But again, my greatest single habit is to read the Bible each and every day. My reading of God’s Word has saved me from more heartache...
... given me more wisdom...
... protected me from more mistakes...
...given me more comfort...
... and provided me with more encouragement than anything else I’ve done in life.
No wonder the psalmist says, ‘‘I long for your salvation, O Lord,
and your law is my delight.
175 Let my soul live and praise you,
and let your rules help me.’’ (Psalm 119:174-175).
Psalm 119 is the most sustained act of praise and commitment to the Word of God in all of the Bible. The psalmist takes 176 verses to motivate us to get into the Bible and get the Bible into us.

deliver me according to your word.
171 My lips will pour forth praise,
for you teach me your statutes.
172 My tongue will sing of your word,
for all your commandments are right.
173 Let your hand be ready to help me,
for I have chosen your precepts.
174 I long for your salvation, O Lord,
and your law is my delight.
