Psalm 119

Meditations and Prayers Relating to the Law of God.

Aleph.

119 How blessed are those whose way is [a]blameless,
Who walk in the law of the Lord.
2 How blessed are those who observe His testimonies,
 Who seek Him with all their heart.
3 They also do no unrighteousness;
 They walk in His ways.
 4 You have [b]ordained Your precepts,
[c]That we should keep them diligently.
5 Oh that my ways may be established
 To keep Your statutes!
 6 Then I shall not be ashamed
 When I look [d]upon all Your commandments.
7 I shall give thanks to You with uprightness of heart,
 When I learn Your righteous judgments.
 8 I shall keep Your statutes;
 Do not forsake me utterly!

-          Aleph is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet and means three-in-on.

-          The alpha (first letter) or creator is three in one (Father, Son & Spirit)

-          The message is “how blessed are those whose way is blameless”

o   The only way to be blameless is to believe on God’s Son Jesus Christ

Beth.

9 How can a young man keep his way pure?
 By keeping it according to Your word.
10 With all my heart I have sought You;
 Do not let me wander from Your commandments.
 11 Your word I have treasured in my heart,
 That I may not sin against You.
 12 Blessed are You, O Lord;
 Teach me Your statutes.
 13 With my lips I have told of
 All the ordinances of Your mouth.
 14 I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,
[e]As much as in all riches.
15 I will meditate on Your precepts
 And [f]regard Your ways.
16 I shall [g]delight in Your statutes;
I shall not forget Your word.

-          Beth is the 2nd letter in the Hebrew alphabet

-          Beth means God oath or pledged to God

o   A God oath is His word or His promise to you (an oath that cannot be broken)

o   Pledged to God to means betrothed to be married (to be one with God)

§  This speaks of heart, mind and soul

-          The Psalmist writes “how can a young man keep his way pure”

o   The answer is “by keeping it according to Your word”

o   Your word I have treasured in my heart (super valuable like Gold)

-          I will meditate on Your precepts
