Joshua 1:8: Psalm 119:97-104; 2nd Timothy 3:14-17

Bible Verses about the Bible

Joshua 1:8

"Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."

Psalm 119:97-104

Oh, how I love your law!
    I meditate on it all day long.
98 Your commands are always with me
    and make me wiser than my enemies.
99 I have more insight than all my teachers,
    for I meditate on your statutes.
100 I have more understanding than the elders,
    for I obey your precepts.
101 I have kept my feet from every evil path
    so that I might obey your word.
102 I have not departed from your laws,
    for you yourself have taught me.
103 How sweet are your words to my taste,
    sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104 I gain understanding from your precepts;
    therefore I hate every wrong path.

2 Timothy 3:14-17

14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

And while it’s called a Psalm of repentance it doesn’t stop at just saying “I did this and I’m sorry” but it takes us through a journey from confession to renewal to mission. As I have been reflecting on this Psalm during the season of Lent, a 40 day period of preparation for Easter, I have been struck about how the Psalm 51 journey takes us through the entire “Easter Festival” , my favorite term of the season of Lent through Easter and all the way to Holy Spirit Sunday 1 Read the text of Psalm 51 here I have divided the Psalm into 3 divisions that demonstrate the journey that King David went on.
