What does the Sword of the Spirit look like when used in the life of a believer?
Psalm 119: The Bible’s Longest Chapter is a Spiritual Diary on How to Use God’s Word as the Sword of the Spirit.
God Gives So Many Amazing Examples to Follow
Read the Word of God like Jeremiah & Ezra (Jer. 15:16; Psalm 119)
Study the Word of God like Daniel (chapter 1,6,9)
Memorize the Word of God like Hannah & Mary (1 Sam. 2; Luke 1)
Meditate upon the Word of God like Joshua & Jeremiah (Josh. 1:8; Lamentations)
Use the Word of God like Jesus (Mt. 4 & Cross), David (Ps. 71), Paul (God who comforts, comforted me), and Ezra (Psalm 119).
Perhaps the longest treatment on the power of the Word of God comes to us in Psalm 119
Please turn onward to one last chapter of God’s Word, Psalm 119.
Who Wrote Psalm 119?
And who wrote this longest chapter of God’s Word? We’re not sure.
Many different men are considered possibilities: David, Hezekiah, Jeremiah, Nehemiah, Malachi, or Daniel because there is no mention of the temple.
But in Jewish history, there is a clear candidate, as there is one who stands out above the others in his life and work, and that is Ezra.
Ezra the Spiritual Giant
To the Jews only Moses eclipses Ezra in their Jewish history.
Why?
Ezra’s life actually has touched every Jew and every Christian for the past 2500 years.
How?
Ezra launched the Jewish Synagogues and wrote the reading schedule Jews follow to this day.
Ezra launched the Scribes of the New Testament era and personally copied all the Scriptures into the Hebrew form that we have today.
