Psalm 119.  - The Song of the Blessed Man or Woman.

The Hebrew term "Blessed" means to be joyfully happy. This psalm announces the way to know God's blessing. It is for those who keep God's law and seek Him with all their hearts.

There can be no "seeking" without firstly "keeping" (v2). God will hear the righteous, but those who turn from his law have no assurance of a hearing in heaven. The Christian can say with confidence, The ear of the Lord is open to the cry of the righteous.

So firstly, confess your neglect of God's law, get right with God through faith in Christ and the cleansing power of His atoning blood, and then you will know peace with God and the power of His blessing.
