Commentary on Psalms 119:9

Theological / Devotional

Thy word. Victory in temptation comes to those who effectively employ the “sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Eph. 6:17). “It is written” was the way the Master met Satan’s subtle allurements (see Matt. 4:4, 7, 10). The youth of today must employ the same spiritual weapons. The mind must constantly feed upon the Word, else the defenses of soul will break down, and Satan will gain the advantage. A neglect to study and to meditate upon the Word for even one day results in serious loss.
