Devotion:
Read Psalm 119:111-114.
When difficult times come, we can always find true comfort in the Word of God. Today’s verse comes from the longest Psalm in the Bible. Remarkably, Psalm 119 is a complete devotional reading on the Word of God. The psalmist reminds us of God’s wonderful promises and logical directives for life. The Psalmist’s conclusion is that the Word of God is our best refuge in tough times.
When life gets hard and we have difficulty trying to keep going, we need to remember that we can always go to God and He will be our place to recharge and help us feel better about life. No matter how crazy life gets, we can find hope and comfort in God’s word.
Next time you feel stressed, try using the psalmist’s technique. Dive into God’s Word, meditate on its wisdom, rediscover his promises for you in Jesus Christ, and trust those promises with all your heart. Sometimes we get impatient for results and forget the words of the scripture that we know so well. Hold fast to the truths that you know from the Bible.
Personal Worship Option:
Father, thank you for your Word and for the encouragement we find in it. Help us to use your Word to stay focused on Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray. Amen.
