HOW TO STAY PURE

 
Psalm 119:9


"How can a young person stay on the path to purity? By living according to your word." NIV


"Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed thereto according to thy word." KJV


We live in a world at a time that is packed with subtle and blatant temptations and pressures to be worldly and live like the world. It is such that it takes persistent and careful attention to keep from getting caught in the snares that lie everywhere. Even though we have such difficult things facing us every day, we can be assured that we are safe from getting pulled in to the ways of the world. The answer is the Word of God. That means reading it, meditating on it, studying it, memorizing it, and living by it's guidelines. Are we safeguarding ourselves by immersing ourselves in His Word?


Heavenly Father, we ask You to forgive us for taking Your Word for granted and failing to delve into it's truths and answers to living in this world. Help us to hide Your Word within our hearts so that we will stay clean and pure in this depraved world. We ask in Jesus' name, Amen.
