Here is the first blessing: God’s Word can keep you clean. You must heed God’s Word (v. 9) and hide God’s Word in your heart (v. 11). Campbell Morgan said of the Bible: “The best book, in the best place, for the best purpose.” You must also rejoice in God’s Word, delight in it and meditate on it. Meditation is to your inner person what digestion is to your body.
Heavenly Meditaton
When you truly delight in the Word, you will have a desire to meditate on it and make it a part of your life. In Psalm 119, the writer connects “delight” and “meditation” (vv. 15–16, 23–24, 47–48, 77–78). Cultivate an appetite for the Word of God.
