Psalm 119:49-56
Why is it so important to be in God’s Word?
This section of Psalm 119 gives us a side-by-side comparison of what the world offers us vs what the Word offers us.
The world offers…
• affliction (v 50)
• mockery and derision (v 51)
• wickedness (v 53)
• temporary comforts (v 54)
• darkness (v 55)
Apart from the Lord, this 👆 is what we have in this life. BUT, when we turn to God’s Word, we find…
• hope (v 49)
• true comfort (v 50, 52)
• life (v 50)
• songs to lift our spirits (v 54)
• blessing (v 56)
When I don’t know what else to do – I turn to God’s Word – and it is always enough.
