Tapping The Treasure

Psalm 119:14-24

14 I rejoice in following your statutes
as one rejoices in great riches.

15 I meditate on your precepts
and consider your ways.

16 I delight in your decrees;
I will not neglect your word.

g Gimel
17 Do good to your servant, and I will live;
I will obey your word.

18 Open my eyes that I may see
wonderful things in your law.

19 I am a stranger on earth;
do not hide your commands from me.

20 My soul is consumed with longing
for your laws at all times.

21 You rebuke the arrogant, who are cursed
and who stray from your commands.

22 Remove from me scorn and contempt,
for I keep your statutes.

23 Though rulers sit together and slander me,
your servant will meditate on your decrees.

24 Your statutes are my delight;
they are my counselors.

Bee's Thoughts:

King David is called the man after God's own heart. We can see from the above passage how he is so passionate about God's word. The the strong words used in describing how he felt about God's word.

rejoices (v14)
meditate (v15)
consider (v15)
delight (v16)
longing (v20)

To King David, God's word is like treasure which we can only see when God open our spiritual eyes to see.


Dear Lord,
May I have the same hunger and thirst for Your wordlike King David had. Open my eyesto see the wondrous things in Your word.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
