Psalms119:111
Notice,
1. How rich the Psalmist was determined to be: "Thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage." Rich,
(a) In knowledge.
(b) In holiness.
(c) In comfort.
(d) In companionship, for God's company goes with his word.
(e) In hope.
2. How he clung to his wealth: "For ever."
(a) He hurt none by so doing; he could give generously his portion, and yet not waste.
(b) He was right; for he had the only wealth of which an everlasting possession is possible.
(c) He was wise.
3. How he rejoiced in his wealth: "They are the rejoicing of my heart."
(a) Here is internal and deep joy; not always possible to the possession of wealth.
(b) Pure, unalloyed joy; it is never so with other wealth.
(c) Safe joy; other joy is dangerous.
(d) Unloseable joy. J.F.
