Introduction
Today’s reading begins with the psalmist expressing a determination to obey the Law of the LORD, followed by a prayer for understanding. The psalmist acknowledges that a desire to obey God’s commands is worth more than material wealth, and concludes by expressing trust in God’s laws and judgments.
Today’s Scripture: Psalm 119:33
Teach me, LORD, the meaning of your laws, and I will obey them at all times.
Today’s Reading
Psalm 119:25-48
Reflect
Reread verses 25-29. For what does the psalmist pray? What does the psalmist promise (verses 30-32)? In what ways do you seek to understand God’s teachings? God gave the Law to Moses shortly after God had set the people free from slavery in Egypt. The Law was intended to help people remain free by worshiping the Lord and living right, including treating one another with justice. The psalmist realizes that perfect freedom comes by obeying God’s teachings (verse 45). Do you feel that obeying God’s teachings provides freedom for you? Why or why not?
Pray
God of life and freedom, let your teachings breathe new life into me that I may experience your perfect freedom by learning to live according to your will with justice, mercy, and compassion. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those seeking to understand God’s teachings.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 119:49-64: The psalmist expresses confidence in and devotion to the Law of the LORD.
