Instructions for the Best Life
Listen to our friend Helen share the Psalmist’s wisdom about how he wants to live his best life.
The author of Psalm 119 celebrates that God’s law is a gift that provides instructions for life. The Psalmist is not advocating legalism but a close relationship with God, which he sees as his true prosperity. This devout poet knows he will find true happiness when he walks along the path of God’s commands, not when he has financial security. The poet wants God’s help so he can be obedient to the law God established. He prayed for a desire for the law instead of the love of money and not to focus on materialistic things.
