As the Psalmist writes Psalm 119, this Heth stanza focuses on commitment. How committed are you to the Word of God, to the God of these words? The Psalmist reflects on his personal commitment to God, beginning with the statement that Yahweh is his portion. The Lord is enough for him, his life is centered on the Lord. What is your commitment to the Lord? What will it be in 2025? What is your commitment to engage the Word? How did you engage the Word last year? As believers, we desperately need the words of God, every day. In order to engage the word of God daily, you need a plan. Consider, make a plan for engaging God through his word in 2025!
