9 How can a young man keep his way pure?
By living according to your word.
10 With my whole heart, I have sought you.
Don’t let me wander from your commandments.
11 I have hidden your word in my heart,
that I might not sin against you.
Reflections on Psalm 119:9
Daily Prayer
Gracious Father, we approach You with humility, inspired by the wisdom of Psalm 119:9. In our pursuit of purity, we acknowledge the paramount importance of living according to Your word. As we seek You with our whole hearts, we echo the psalmist’s plea, asking that we may not wander from Your commandments. Lord, help us to internalize Your word, that it may be a guiding light, shielding us from the snares of sin.
As we meditate on the richness of Your teachings, we’re reminded of the strength found in Joshua 1:9 and the comfort of casting our anxieties upon You in 1 Peter 5:7. We thank You for Your unchanging love and guidance. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
