Alright, so I have been working through Psalm 119 and it has been a blast! The whole thing will be in 22 parts because I'm taking one section (one Hebrew letter) per day for my devotion. This Psalm may seem long and repetitive, but it displays many important doctrines concerning the Christian's walk before God, God's Character, His Word and our relationship with it etc. The reason I choose the word "display" vs. the word "describe" when speaking of these doctrines is due to the fact that we are observing David's prayers and interactions with God; not a doctrinal statement. Psalm 119 reveals how these great doctrines were thought of and lived out by David. This gives us a real-life model of how we should interact with these doctrines that is extremely practical. I hope that your walk with the Lord is strengthened and deepened though this Psalm in the coming days!
