Daily Bites Of God's Word Blog Series - Part 1 - Psalm 119:1
Just as we need daily food to sustain us physically, we also need daily food from God’s Word to sustain us spiritually.
How blessed are those whose way is blameless,
Who walk in the law of Yahweh.
Notice here that this Psalm puts a great emphasis on the fact that if you want to be blessed, if you want it to be said that you are a blessed person, true blessedness comes from the righteousness that we not only receive in justification and in salvation, but also in the living out of this righteousness that Christ gives us. It is walking in this blameless way.
It’s walking or conducting yourself in submission to the law of the Lord and to Scripture. The word “walk” means “the way you conduct your life.” This is about the habitual pattern of your life.
The blessed person patterns their life in a consistent submission to scripture. You won’t be able to do it in sinless perfection. Obviously, we still reside in sinful flesh, but you will be able to grow in your consistency in walking in this righteousness.
And so I encourage you today: if you want to be blessed, if you want to be thought of as a blessed person, you need to walk blamelessly and righteously. You can do so by walking in submission and obedience to the law of God, of the Lord. Amen.
