Psalms 119:1-8

1. The blessing of obeying God’s Word 119:1-8

The writer rejoiced in the fact that people who obey God’s Word wholeheartedly enjoy His blessing (Psalms 119:1-3). Consequently he wanted to be more consistently obedient himself (Psalms 119:4-6). He promised to be more thankful as he continued to learn more about God’s Word (Psalms 119:7-8).

"The love for God receives expression in doing the will of God." [Note: VanGemeren, p. 739.]
