Psalm 119:5

by Ana Marie Ort on January 5, 2010

Oh that my ways may be steadfast in keeping your statutes! -Psalm 119:5

Word meanings

ways: road, distance, journey, manner, path, direction, manner, habit

steadfast: established, firm, stable, secure, enduring, fixed, determined, prepared, arranged, settled, set up, accomplish, furnish

Praise God that His people will be steadfast in their walk with Him! He has ordained that the direction/journey of His people will be growth in holiness. Will I joyfully submit to His ways and be committed to progressing in them and not giving up? Will I choose to embrace His ways rather than having Him teach me through chastisement that it is best to submit?
