Psalm 119 - Verse 14 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Walk According To The Way Of Divine Testimony And Don’t Let Riches Engulf You Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 18, 2026

| 4 views

This interesting verse makes the comparison between the word of God and riches. How does that balance maintain itself in your life? What we will stress is that the psalmist loved the word so much that he rejoices in it. Do we rejoice in the words of the bible?

VERSE 14. WALK ACCORDING TO THE WAY OF DIVINE TESTIMONY AND DON’T LET RICHES ENGULF YOU {{Psalm 119:14 “I have REJOICED in the way of Your testimonies as much as in all RICHES.”}}. (KJV = “I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.”) [[TESTIMONIES = testimony (JKV ...read more

An Examination Of Beelzeboul/Beelzebub, The Lord Of The Flies Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 18, 2026

| 5 views

The name Beelzeboul or Beelzebub is associated with Satan, the name meaning “lord of the flies”. This message looks at the first incidence of that word and traces it through. We are going to look at many aspects in relation to the lord of the flies.

[A]. THE FIRST BIBLICAL REFERENCE TO BEELZEBOUL On several occasions this year, I have had to kill flies that settle on the covering on the Lord’s Table. We hire a hall and some events previous to our Sunday meetings have had food and when the renters shut up, some flies are still inside. These ...read more

Psalm 119 - Verse 13 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Confession Of What God Has Declared – Sharing The Lord Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 17, 2026

| 9 views

What we have received, we pass on. How can we remain silent? Is God’s salvation too little for us? Our responsibility is to proclaim the ordinances of God, to share His message to a lost world. David did not hide the message under a bushel, but spoke openly for his Lord. What a challenge!

Psalm 119 - Verse 12 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - God Is Honoured/Blessed But There Is A Request Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 13, 2026

| 10 views

The Lord is blessed because He is majestic and we are people of His creation. Considering the greatness of God, then the psalmist wants to be taught the way of God including His decrees and statutes. We look at the amazing creation with fungi.

Teach me Your statutes.”}} (KJV = Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.”) [[STATUTES = action prescribed, ordinance, enactments, decree]] Part way through this Psalm David pauses and ...read more

Psalm 119 - Verse 11 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Where Your Treasure Is There Will Your Heart Be Also Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 12, 2026

| 31 views

Psalm 119:11 is one of the pivotal verses of scripture. Why is there failure among Christians? Why is there an inferior walk? It is because we have failed to hold the word of God in the correct place. The bible must be treasured in the inner part of us all. Important verse.

VERSE 11. WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS THERE YOUR HEART WILL BE ALSO {{Psalm 119:11 “Your word I have TREASURED IN MY HEART that I may not sin AGAINST YOU.”}} (KJV = “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.”) This is a well-known verse and often quoted, but too often ...read more

Psalm 119 - Verse 10 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Personal Testimony Of Commitment And Request Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 12, 2026

| 19 views

The psalmist’s huge desire was to seek the Lord WITH ALL HIS HEART. We look into this and also at our position on commitment. Also we take up King David and how he sought the Lord. It is so easy to be deceived and to fool ourselves. The word of God will test us, so embrace it fully.

VERSE 10. PERSONAL TESTIMONY OF COMMITMENT AND REQUEST {{Psalm 119:10 “With ALL MY HEART I have sought You. Do not let me wander from Your commandments.”}} (KJV = With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. [[COMMANDMENTS = commands, code of wisdom, ...read more

Psalm 119 - Verse 8 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - The Desire For Faithful Connection With The Lord Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 11, 2026

| 27 views

The Psalmist’s request is that he won’t be forsaken by the Lord. The word “utterly” is used. He affirms that he keeps God’s statutes and these he truly follows. We look at the presence of the Holy Spirit with a believer and sealed and baptised by the Spirit.

VERSE 8. THE DESIRE FOR FAITHFUL CONNECTION WITH THE LORD {{Psalm 119:8 “I shall keep Your statutes. Do not forsake me utterly!”}}. (The KJV is “I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.”) [[STATUTES = action prescribed, ordinance, enactments, decree (KJV = statutes)]] The ...read more

Psalm 119 - Verse 9 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Straightforward And Strong Advice For Young Men Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 11, 2026

| 24 views

We look at purity in the lives of young men. It is a critical matter in an immoral world. This theme is explored but the basis for overcoming is found only in the word of God. An adulterated world perceives as pure, what is unclean; what the bible sees as pure, the world makes unclean.

VERSE 9. STRAIGHTFORWARD AND STRONG ADVICE FOR YOUNG MEN {{Psalm 119:9 “How can a young man keep his way pure? By KEEPING it according to Your word.”}}.

Psalm 119 - Verse 7 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Learning Righteousness Leads To Thankfulness Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 10, 2026

| 22 views

Here we will look at the righteousness of God that so many question. That righteousness results in judgement and David gives thanks for these judgments of righteousness. How do these acts of God affect us? It needs to lead to praise, as it did for David in this verse 7.

VERSE 7. LEARNING RIGHTEOUSNESS LEADS TO THANKFULNESS {{Psalm 119:7 “I shall give thanks to You with uprightness of heart WHEN I learn Your righteous judgments.”}}.

Psalm 119 - Verse 6 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Being Established Means Not Being Ashamed Before God Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 10, 2026

| 24 views

What is shame, and its outcomes? We look at conscience and how that operates. Not being ashamed in the Lord’s presence is a goal we must pursue in spite of the burden and hindrance of sin. God’s word will cause us not to be ashamed. In heaven, changed from sinfulness to utmost purity.

VERSE 6. BEING ESTABLISHED MEANS NOT BEING ASHAMED BEFORE GOD {{Psalm 119:6 “THEN I shall NOT BE ASHAMED when I look upon all Your commandments.”}}. (The AV is “Then I would not be ashamed when I look into all Your commandments.”) [[COMMANDMENTS = commands, code of wisdom, instruction (KJV – ...read more

Psalm 119 - Verse 5 - Delights And Meditations From Psalm 119 - Ways That Are Established On A Strong Foundation Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 5, 2026

| 28 views

I think it happens a lot that the great desire to be close to the Lord, at His feet as it were, when we are young, fades as life advances. That is a shame. David wanted to be established (firm and secure) so he would not waver from service for God and from a walk of faithfulness.

VERSE 5. WAYS THAT ARE ESTABLISHED ON A STRONG FOUNDATION {{Psalm 119:5 “Oh that my ways MAY BE ESTABLISHED to keep Your statutes!”}}.

In this next verse, we consider God’s precepts given for our spiritual and physical walk. Only the foolish would reject these but they will answer for that. God ordained all His precepts. We must keep them with all diligence. We must be serious about our faith. Peter says “be more diligent”.

VERSE 4. THE REASON GOD ORDAINED PRECEPTS - WHY? {{Psalm 119:4 “You have ordained Your precepts that we should keep them diligently.”}} (The AV says “Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.”) [[PRECEPTS = precepts, statutes, special conduct (JKV = precepts)]] There is a ...read more

Today’s verse says that those who seek God and observe His word do not walk in unrighteousness. We look at the contrast between the walk of the righteous and that of the unrighteous. Where does your delight lay?

VERSE 3 – UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS NOT THEIR WAY {{Psalm 119:3 “They also do no unrighteousness. They walk in His ways.”}}.

Meditations in Psalm 119 continue, this time in verse 2 where we examine, OBSERVE and SEEK. This can be challenging, especially when the verse ends with “all their heart”. The verse begins with “How blessed,” and we look into those blessings for us.

VERSE 2 – BLESSING FOR THOSE WHO OBSERVE AND SEEK {{Psalm 119:2 “HOW BLESSED are those who OBSERVE His testimonies, who SEEK Him with ALL THEIR HEART.”}}. (KJV is “Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.”) [[TESTIMONIES = testimony (JKV = ...read more
