“I speak continually of your laws as I recite out loud your counsel to me. Standing firm in the heavens and fastened to eternity is the Word of God. Because your words are my deepest delight, I didn’t give up when all else was lost. I’ve learned that there is nothing perfect in this imperfect world except your words, for they bring such fantastic freedom into my life! By considering your commands I have an edge over my enemies, for I take seriously everything you say. I refused to bend my morals when temptation was before me so that I could become obedient to your Word. I refuse to turn away from difficult truths, for you yourself have taught me to love your words. Truth’s shining light guides me in my choices and decisions; the revelation of your Word makes my pathway clear. I’m bruised and broken, overwhelmed by it all; breathe life into me again by your living word. You’re my place of quiet retreat, and your wraparound presence becomes my shield as I wrap myself in your Word! Lord, strengthen my inner being by the promises of your Word so that I may live faithful and unashamed for you. I need more revelation from your Word to know more about you, for I’m in love with you! Every word you speak, every truth revealed, is always right and beautiful to me, for I hate what is phony or false. Your marvelous words are living miracles; no wonder I long to obey everything you say. Break open your Word within me until revelation-light shines out! Those with open hearts are given insight into your plans. I open my mouth and inhale the Word of God because I crave the revelation of your commands. The motive behind your every word is pure, and your teachings are remarkably faithful and true. All your promises glow with fire; that’s why I’m a lover of your Word. Give me more revelation so that I can live for you, for nothing is more pure and eternal than your truth. Before the day dawns, I’ll be crying out for help and wrapping your words into my life. I’ve known all along how true and unchanging is every word you speak, established forever! The sum total of all your words adds up to absolute truth, and every one of your righteous decrees is everlasting. The powerful elite have persecuted me without a cause, but my heart trembles in awe because of your miracle-words. Your promises are the source of my bubbling joy; the revelation of your Word thrills me like one who has discovered hidden treasure. There is such a great peace and well-being that comes to the lovers of your Word, and they will never be offended. Lord, listen to my prayer. It’s like a sacrifice I bring to you; I must have more revelation of your Word! Your wonderful words will become my song of worship, for everything you’ve commanded is perfect and true. I wait for your deliverance, O Lord, for your words thrill me like nothing else!”
