The Blessings of Being in the Word - According to Psalm 119

  • Draws us into praise
  • Directs us away from sinfulness
  • Causes us to rejoice
  • There we will see wonderful things
  • Brings delight to the soul
  • Increases our longing for it
  • Gives us counsel
  • Brings revival
  • Gives strength
  • Enlarges the heart for God
  • Draws us away from covetousness
  • Keeps our eyes off of what is worthless
  • Brings hope
  • Gives comfort in affliction
  • Teaches good judgment
  • When others see our hope in the Word, brings them encouragement
  • Brings life
  • Gain wisdom and understanding
  • Experience sweetness 
  • Illumines our walk to keep us from stumbling
  • We find truth because it is truth
  • Are in great treasure
  • Find peace 
I'm sure I didn't exhaust the list.  So much benefit from putting forth the effort of being in God's Word!
