Does it sound unusual to hear someone exclaim that they love the Bible? According to the pattern recorded in Psalm 119, this should be the response of every Christian to the Word of God. Alistair Begg explains that the Bible comes from God to His people not only for our instruction but also to communicate His love to our hearts. As we meditate on God’s Word, the Spirit of God enables our obedience and transforms us increasingly into the image of Christ.
97Oh how xI love your law!
It is my ymeditation all the day.
98Your commandment makes me zwiser than my enemies,
for it is ever with me.
99I have more understanding than all my teachers,
for ayour testimonies are my meditation.
100I understand more than bthe aged,8
for I ckeep your precepts.
101I dhold back my feet from every evil way,
in order to keep your word.
102I do not turn aside from your rules,
for you have taught me.
103How esweet are your words to my taste,
sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104Through your precepts I get understanding;
therefore fI hate every false way.
105gYour word is a lamp to my feet
and a light to my path.
106I have hsworn an oath and confirmed it,
to keep your irighteous rules.
107I am severely jafflicted;
kgive me life, O Lord, according to your word!
108Accept lmy freewill offerings of praise, O Lord,
and mteach me your rules.
109I hold my life nin my hand continually,
but I do not oforget your law.
110The wicked have laid pa snare for me,
but qI do not stray from your precepts.
111Your testimonies are rmy heritage forever,
for they are sthe joy of my heart.
112I tincline my heart to perform your statutes
