I. THE PERFORMANCE OF THE WORD- Psalm 119
The Word of God performs many wonderful ministries in the life of the devoted believer.
1. It keeps us clean (v. 9),
2. gives us joy (vv. 14, 111, 162),
3. guides us (vv. 24, 33-35, 105), and
4. establishes our values (vv. 11, 37, 72, 103, 127, 148, 162).
5. The Word helps us to pray effectively (v. 58) and
6. gives us hope (v. 49) and
7. peace (v. 165) and
8. freedom (vv. 45, 133).
9. Loving the Word will bring the best friends into our life (vv. 63, 74, 79),
10. help us find and fulfill God's purposes (v. 73), and
11. strengthen us to witness (vv. 41-43).
12. When we think we are "down and out," the Word will revive us and get us back on our feet
(vv. 25, 37, 40, 88, 107, 149, 154, 156, 159).
13. If we delight in His Word, learn it, treasure it within, and obey what it says, the Lord will work
