During our sermon series this month, “The Basics: Building Confidence in the Bible”, we will send out a portion of Psalm 119 to encourage you in building the habit of reading and meditating on God’s word each day. Psalm 119 is broken into 22 sections of 8 verses each, based on the letters of the Hebrew alphabet, which are labeled at the beginning of each section. We hope you enjoy diving into these passages that unearth the riches and benefits of God’s word!

Psalm 119:113-120

113  I hate the double-minded, but I love your law. 

114  You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word. 

115  Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commandments of my God. 

116  Uphold me according to your promise, that I may live, and let me not be put to shame in my hope! 

117  Hold me up, that I may be safe and have regard for your statutes continually! 

118  You spurn all who go astray from your statutes, for their cunning is in vain. 

119  All the wicked of the earth you discard like dross, therefore I love your testimonies. 

120  My flesh trembles for fear of you, and I am afraid of your judgments.
