One-minute read.

Divided into 22 sections, Psalm 119 holds the trophy for the longest chapter in the Bible. Containing 176 verses, the psalm uses the Hebrew alphabet for its structure. Each section begins with a letter of the alphabet, from Aleph to Tav (A to Z).
Describing his reliance on and love for God’s law, the unnamed author often gets credited to David, although some scholars suggest Ezra, Daniel, or Jeremiah as possibilities. The psalmist shares their struggles and how holding fast to scripture helps them persevere, declaring the Word of God as all-sufficient.
Filled with prayers and petitions for guidance and strength, the author relies on the Lord’s grace to help him follow the Creator’s decrees. By practicing God’s commands, the psalmist finds victory over his struggles and the peace that only our heavenly Father can give.
As we embark on a 90-day journey through this instrumental psalm, let’s embrace the truth of God’s word, apply it to our lives, and live in the victory Christ gave us on the cross.
Enjoy the journey, friend. Rest in the arms of the Savior; allow Him to fight for you. Let God’s word be a lamp unto your feet, lighting your path, leading you to abundant life in Christ.
Prayer
Lord,
Thank You for Your Word that lights our path and shows us the way to right living with Christ. As we study the passages in this Psalm over the next 90 days, help us apply it to our lives, living boldly for You.
IJNP. Amen
