9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.
10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.
11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
12 Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.
13 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.
14 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.
15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word. Psalm 119:9-16
Gold has taken the place of God in the heart of so many. They treasure more the riches of this world than the word of God. But people, who will amount to much in God's kingdom, will need to have the right attitude to God's word, meditate on the words, declare the words to other people, memorize the words and be committed to live according to God's word. To learn more of the words, the church has put in place Sunday bible school and midweek bible studies. There are several other avenues of learning God's word-listening to God's word on tapes, on the television, on the Internet and reading Christian books. but many people rather spend luxuries than on buying Bibles.
Point of Emphasis: God's word has to become a treasure to you, if you are going to make heaven.
