Psalm 119 part 3

1. Read vv121-128. The psalmist is confident that God is with him. How does that contrast with what he said about those who are against God?
2. The “evil people” surfaced again in v150. Given this situation, what did the psalmist request God to do to these people, and to him?
3. Having spent three studies on this psalm, what contrasting words does the psalmist have for his relationship to God and what he asked God to do to those against him?
4. Spend some time on our own to write a short poem (2 to 4 lines) including “I love your word…” and “God, deal with those difficult people…”. Share your poems in the group.
5. Written more than 2000 years ago, this psalm celebrates God’s faithfulness and utters the psalmist’s assurance of God’s provision. To what extent do we claim that God’s promises for the psalmist are still true or righteous (v172) today?
6. What is the overriding theme or verse for you in this psalm? Share this in the group.
7. Imagine the verses of this psalm are instead represented as art, i.e., the words are depicted in art, not word by word; or as a piece of music, architecture, analytical workflow or even robotic sequence. What do the art or such alternative medium show or do that would communicate this psalm?
