Teach Me, Lord, and Order My Steps in Your Word

Scripture: Psalms 119: 129-136

PE. Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them.  The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.  I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.  Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.  Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.  Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.  Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.  Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.

Scripture Commentary: Be prepared for change as you apply God’s Word

Double-minded people cannot make up their minds between good and evil.  But when it comes to obeying God, there is no middle ground; you must take a stand.  Either you are obeying Him or you are not.  Either you are doing what He wants or you are undecided.  Have your ordered your steps in His Word?

Faith comes alive when we apply Scripture to our daily tasks and concerns.  We need discernment so we can understand and we need the desire to apply Scripture where we need help.

The Bible is like medicine in that it goes to work only when we apply it to the affected areas.  As you read the Bible, be alert for lessons, commands, and examples that you can put into practice.
