1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord.

2 Blessed are they that keep His testimonies, and that seek Him with the whole heart.

3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in His ways.

4 Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.

5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!

6 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments.

7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.

8 I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.

9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.

10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.

11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

12 Blessed art thou, O Lord: teach me thy statutes.

176 verses. Too much to study in one session. Too much good truth to miss any of it. So, we have divided it into 15 parts.

So much truth in this first part!  Have we hid His Word in our heart? If we have then it is these Words that empower us to do what is right. In His Word we see grace, that is the power that enables us to not sin against God. If we want to be blessed today, then let us keep His commands. Do we love God with the whole heart? If so then we will be blessed. When we surrender the whole heart, then the Holy Spirit takes possession of the heart. "A new heart also will I give you, and a new Spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.Then being filled with the Holy Spirit, the third Person in the godhead, we become partakers of God's divine nature. "Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust." 2 Peter 1:4. If we do not love the Lord our God with the whole heart, then we are not filled with the Holy Spirit. The first and greatest of all His commands is that we love God with the whole heart. "Master which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." Matt. 36:36,37.

Blessed are they that keep His testimonies, and that seek Him with the whole heart. I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments. With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee." Ps. 119:2,7,10,11.
