Oh, welcome back to Daily Bites of God's Word. This is Andy Kane. It's a joy to be back with you once again. Today we are looking at Psalm 119, verse 28.
It says, My soul weeps because of grief. Raise me up according to your word.
The word here, weeps, means to drop, to feel that, just that drop in your spirit and that dropping down deep in your soul when something terrible has happened to you or something tragic or something along those lines and you just, you feel like there's no tomorrow.
You feel like there's no way out. You feel like there's just nothing you could possibly do to get out of the situation.
What's going to be your foundation? What's going to raise you back up again? What is going to get you back to where you need to be is going to be the
Word of God. He says, Raise me up not according to what I think, not according to what I can do, not according to what anyone else can do.
Raise me up according to your word. The foundation of scripture, the foundation of the
Word of God, the consistent, contextual, according to the literature, reading and studying and living out of the
Word of God in your life will be that anchor that will hold you up and keep you from hitting the bottom. It'll be that anchor you can hold on to when you feel yourself dropping or you feel yourself headed down the wrong way.
It can get you turned around and it can bring you up. It can raise you to where you need to be.
We need to love the Word of God. We need to cherish it. We need to embrace it and we need to use it and live by it, walk according to it.
So next time you feel this way, next time you feel like something's off and you feel like you're dropping or your soul is in grief, get into the
Word of God. Be raised back to health spiritually through and because of the
Word of God. Hey ma 'am, I want to thank you for joining me on this daily bite of God's Word. God bless.
