- Spiritual Life Psalm 119:93 I will never forget your precepts, for by them you have given me life.
- Wisdom Psalm 119:98-100Your commandment makes me wiser than my enemies, for it is ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the aged, for I keep your precepts.
- Delight Psalm 119:103 How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

- A Heart of Worship Psalm 119:117-172 My lips will pour forth praise, for you teach me your statutes. My tongue will sing of your word, for all your commandments are right.
- Freedom John 8:31-32 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
- Makes Scripture readily available to teach, witness, encourage or reprove others 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.
- Increased Faith Romans 10:17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
- Victory Over Temptation Mt 4:4 But he answered, “It is written, ‘ Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” (This is from the account of Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness. Jesus answered each of Satan’s temptations by saying, ‘It is written...’ then quoting a Scripture from memory.)
- Confidence In Prayer 1 John 5:14-15 And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.
- To Imitate Jesus’ Own Example 1 John 5:14-15 And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.
