Leadership – The Word of God

If we had to select one chapter of the Bible that portrays the heartbeat of a godly leader in relation to the Word of God, it would probably be Psalm 119. In all but two of its 176 verses, the psalmist relates his life to the Word of God to the God behind the Word. It is always Your laws, Your statues, Your desires, Your precepts, and so forth. To the writer, the law of God was not cold commands of some far-off deity, but the living Word of God which he loved, sought, and yearned to please. (Adapted from quote of Jerry Bridges)
