Psalm 119

Introduction:

        1.    In Ephesians 6:17b the Word of God is referred to as "the sword of the Spirit."
        2.    It is an important part of the armor of God that we must put on "to stand against the wiles of
               the devil"
(Ephesians 6:11).

        3.    We would be very wise to learn as much about the Scriptures as possible.
        4.    This evening, our lesson is based on Psalm 119.
        5.    This Psalm that consists of 176 verses reveals some important information that relates to
               God's Word.

               a.    It describes God's Word.
               b.    It shows how God's people have certain responsibilities that relate to His Word.
               c.    It reveals some of the special blessings available to those who fulfill the responsibilities that
                      God has given in connection with His Word.

II.                GOD'S  PEOPLE  HAVE  RESPONSIBILITIES  THAT  RELATE  TO  HIS  WORD

III.             GOD  PROVIDES  SPECIAL  BLESSINGS  TO  THOSE  WHO  FULFILL  THESE
                 RESPONSIBILITIES  THAT  RELATE  TO  HIS  WORD

Conclusion:

        1.    All of this valuable information concerning God's Word is found in one Psalm.
        2.    Let us search all the Scriptures regularly and diligently to learn as much about them as possible
               so we can "stand against the wiles of the devil."
