Love for God’s Word and prayer for quickening

 

Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness. Psalm 119:159

The psalmist loves God's Word, so he asks for quickening.  Love for God's Word is a good argument for prayer. Because he loves God's Word, he wants to obey God's precepts, and he knows he cannot do it  without God’s strength. Therefore, he asks the Lord to revive him.

 I love Your Word, quicken me to obey it, to tell others, to reject everything that is contrary to Your Word.
