David writes about the creation, suggesting that we start to listen to nature with our heart, not our ears. We don’t quite understand creation, but creation is our witness of the Creator. Creation is a message for everyone, but as with all things there are some who reject the Creator for the created things. David writes for the end or the fulfillment, the end of the age. The age is ready to let the heavens declare the glory of the Elohim. David tells us that God’s words are light. When we actually pay attention to our surroundings, we can see the design of the Elohim. We also notice the limitations of the devil and the chaos that the devil has caused on the earth. The daytime spews rhēma. The nighttime reports knowledge. What does that mean? David also paints a picture of a groom coming for a bride, let’s explore.
Paul has many comparisons to Psalms 19. He gives us insight and understanding of the creation in turmoil. He also tells us about those who reject the Creator and calls them morons. We know that our creation is going to heal itself when the sons of the Most High God are revealed.
Romans 8:19 G3588 For the G1063 G603 earnest expectation G3588 of the G2937 creation G3588 [2the G602 3uncovering G3588 4of the G5207 5sons G3588 G2316 6of God G553 1awaits].
The creation is waiting for the uncovering, the apocalypse, of the sons of Elohim. There is a time that the creation is intensely anticipating. It is the revealing of the sons of God.
Romans 8:20 G3588 G1063 For G3153 to vanity G3588 the G2937 creation G5293 was submitted, G3756 not G1635 willingly, G235 but G1223 through G3588 the one G5293 submitting it, G1909 upon G1680 hope;
The creation was unwillingly forced into subjection because of the hostile takeover by the current prince of this world. Notice that the creation has an opinion. It is unwillingly submitting to an enemy. There are hostile forces impacting creation, creation feels it, creation speaks of it.
Romans 8:21 G3754 that G2532 even G1473 [3itself G3588 1the G2937 2creation] G1659 shall be freed G575 from G3588 the G1397 slavery G3588 G5356 of corruption, G1519 unto G3588 the G1657 freedom G3588 of the G1391 glory G3588 of the G5043 children G3588 G2316 of God.
The creation will be freed from enslavement to freedom when the glory of the children of God is uncovered. What will creation look like then? What will creation feel like when it comes out from under enslavement? When all enemies are subdued during the millennial kingdom, creation will heal.
Romans 8:22 G1492 For we know G1063 G3754 that G3956 all G3588 the G2937 creation G4959 groans together, G2532 and G4944 suffers distress together, G891 as far as G3588 the G3568 present.
All creation moans together in common calamity. What calamity? The overthrow of the adam. All creation has pain together. What pain? The pain of corruption and decay. The pain of slavery that causes corruption. We seldom recognize that it was not only humanity that the devil subverted, it was the entire creation. With the created earth under the bondage of the fallen sons of God, the entire creation is in distress.
Romans 8:23 G3756 [2not G3440 3only that G1161 1And], G235 but G2532 also G1473 ourselves G3588 [2the G536 3first-fruit G3588 4of the G4151 5spirit G2192 1having], G2532 even G1473 we G1473 ourselves G1722 in G1438 ourselves G4727 moan, G5206 [2adoption G553 1awaiting] -- G3588 the G629 release by ransom G3588 G4983 of our body. G1473
The children of God, the first fruits of the Holy Spirit since Pentecost, groan, grieve, and feel enclosed by obstacles. We feel burdened and weighted down along with the creation. We feel it, but we don’t know how to express it, to make clear to others that this is not the way it is supposed to be. We are awaiting our release by Jesus’ ransom for our adoption. As we know from Revelation, once the harpazo occurs, more chaos ensues on the earth. During the trumpet judgments, the creation fights against the evil on the earth. But restoration comes after the bowl judgments when the sons of God are revealed from heaven on white horses.
Even though the creation is moaning in pain, if we slow down we will be able to see the Creator in all of creation. The creation is burdened just as we are. The creation still shows the intelligent design of the Creator. David writes a beautiful Psalm regarding the creation and the Creator.
“Into the fulfillment, a song the David.”
Telos means the end. This is a poetic look at the Creator and creation. It is into the fulfillment, or for the end. There are things about this Psalm that we can now understand as compared to two hundred years ago.
Psalms 19:1 G3588 The G3772 heavens G1334 describe G1391 the glory G2316 of God, G4162 [5 the making G1161 1and G5495 6of his hands G1473 G312 4announces G3588 2the G4733 3firmament].
“The heavens set out in detail renown Elohim, but the foundation report the fabrication your hand.”
The heavens have a detailed account written of the unspoken manifestation of the Elohim. There are many layers to this idea. First, if we look up at the heavens with our naked eye we can see stars and planets, the sun and the moon. If we look at those things we see an unspoken manifestation of a Creator. There is no billboard on the moon that introduces us to our Creator, but we can surmise that the ambiguity of our existence is more than evolutionary. We can see that there is distance and vastness between planets, stars, the sun, and the moon. Our question is then, how did humans or humankind arrive on this planet? Our Bible tells us that the man, the adam, was created from the very dust on this planet. The woman was then taken out of the man as a boēthos, a helper/succorer, or someone to call on, from Yahweh, for help.
Another layer is the prophecies written in the heavens. There was no television when humans were created, but there were stars and planets. The pattern of the stars form constellations. The constellations are not technical pictures by their arrangement, they are word pictures via the names of the stars in the group. Abraham was given this knowledge as he read the names of the stars; putting together a story of fallen beings subverting the adam and the promise of a seed from the boēthos which would have hatred towards the seed of the serpent and ultimately crush his head. The story of a redeemer who would have to die to free his bride, who would bring a ship to rescue the sheepfold, and then sit as King as the lion of Judah appears in the heavens. With many more details, Abraham taught this knowledge to the Egyptians, as well as others. Today, the basic meaning of star names has remained consistent over the course of time and despite translations through several different languages throughout history. Daniel was able to teach this knowledge to people who would later journey to find the Messiah. The accuracy of this knowledge has been lost and subverted into fairy tales in our day, but there was a time two thousand years ago when a thousand people ventured to Nazareth to find a child and give him gifts. That level of accuracy in reading the heavens is not in practice today. But it was in use when David wrote this.
Proverbs tells us that Yahweh created the Holy Spirit at the beginning of his ways before the ages, Proverbs 8:22-ff. The Holy Spirit was present when Yahweh created the inhabitable world. The Holy Spirit was beside and joined to Yahweh in this endeavor. Genesis tells us that in the beginning, the Elohim manufactured the earth, and the Holy Spirit brought forward over the waters, or superinduced the waters. The Elohim then continues to bring forth other aspects of creation. Then the Elohim forms the adam. Genesis 2:4 says that this is the book of the origin of heaven and earth. Yahweh Elohim then instructs the adam not to eat of the tree of ‘knowing good and evil’. We see a team effort in making Creation. The heavens set out in detail the renown of the Elohim. Paul now explains what happens to people who reject the Creator.
Romans 1:19 G1360 Because G3588 the thing G1110 made known G3588 G2316 of God G5318 is apparent G1510.2.3 G1722 among G1473 them; G3588 G1063 for G2316 God G1473 made it apparent to them. G5319
It is apparent that there is a creator. We live on a spinning ball, suspended in atmosphere among other spinning balls, and warmed by a large exploding sphere.
Romans 1:20 G3588 For G1063 G517 his unseen attributes G1473 G575 from G2937 the creation G2889 of the world G3588 to the G4161 actions G3539 being comprehended G2529 are looked at, G3588 both G5037 G126 his everlasting G1473 G1411 power G2532 and G2305 divinity, G1519 for G3588 G1510.1 them to be G1473 G379 inexcusable.
People should have understood the Creator’s invisible foundation of the cosmos, his workmanship should be comprehended and perceived as eternal power and divine nature and this is inexcusable when people who once knew Him as Creator rejected him.
Romans 1:21 G1360 Because G1097 having known G3588 G2316 God, G3756 [2not G5613 3as G2316 4God G1392 1they glorified him], G2228 or G2168 gave thanks; G235 but G3154 acted in folly G1722 in G3588 G1261 their thoughts, G1473 G2532 and G4654 [4was darkened G3588 G801 2senseless G1473 1their G2588 3heart].
They became perverted morons. They then made idols and claimed that they were the gods. Their minds’ became dark and their hearts became senseless. Paul is pointing out that they became this way, they were not created this way. David points out that Yahweh is known by infants, as we will see. This tells us the people that Paul is speaking of were influenced by the god of this world who has blinded the minds of his followers.
Romans 1:23 G2532 and G236 they bartered G3588 the G1391 glory G3588 of the G862 incorruptible G2316 God G1722 for G3667 a representation G1504 of an image G5349 of corruptible G444 man, G2532 and G4071 birds, G2532 and G5074 four-footed creatures, G2532 and G2062 reptiles.
24 G1352 Therefore G2532 also G3860 [2delivered them up G1473 G3588 G2316 1God] G1722 in G3588 the G1939 desires G3588 G2588 of their hearts G1473 G1519 unto G167 uncleanness, G3588 G818 to dishonor G3588 G4983 their bodies G1473 G1722 among G1438 themselves;
25 G3748 the ones who G3337 changed over G3588 the G225 truth G3588 G2316 of God G1722 in G3588 the G5579 lie, G2532 and G4573 worshiped G2532 and G3000 served G3588 to the G2937 created thing G3844 over G3588 the one G2936 having created it, G3739 who G1510.2.3 is G2128 blessed G1519 into G3588 the G165 eons. G281 Amen.
They worshipped created things instead of the one who created all things. Think of Darwinism in our time, there is technically no such thing as evolution, such as monkeys transforming/evolving into humans. We know this now because we have the technology of DNA.There is evolutionary adaptation of a species, meaning a species can adapt to weather, to food sources, or to damaged DNA (reproducing a mutation), making the species capable of survival otherwise it would become extinct. Yet we still have textbooks claiming evolution is fact. Creation speaks out. We have a Creator. The heavens tell our story. Solomon explains this as well.
Wisdom of Solomon 13:1-5 (KJVApocrypha)
1 Surely vain are all men by nature, who are ignorant of God, and could not out of the good things that are seen know him that is: neither by considering the works did they acknowledge the workmaster;
2 But deemed either fire, or wind, or the swift air, or the circle of the stars, or the violent water, or the lights of heaven, to be the gods which govern the world.
3 With whose beauty if they being delighted took them to be gods; let them know how much better the Lord of them is: for the first author of beauty hath created them.
4 But if they were astonished at their power and virtue, let them understand by them, how much mightier he is that made them.
5 For by the greatness and beauty of the creatures proportionably the maker of them is seen.
The foundation reports the fabrication of the hands of the Elohim. The foundation is generally translated “firmament” which is not quite the point. It is not the arch of the sky, but the firm steady constancy of this solid body. The Earth doesn’t leave its own orbit. The sun comes up, the sun goes down, the darkness reveals the stars, the sunlight brings warmth. The stability of the things created is the idea here. The earth does not revolve around the sun in such a way that it changes course when it wants to. It is stable and established. The foundation is stable. This in and of itself announces the manufacturing of the earth, the planets, the solar system, and the universe, as to the hands of the Elohim.
Psalms 19:2 G2250 Day G3588 to G2250 day G2044 bubbles up G4487 a saying; G2532 and G3571 night unto G3571 night G312 announces G1108 knowledge.

“Day the day belch forth/spew things spoken and night night time report knowledge.”
Every day, day after day the heavens spew rhēma. Everything that the Elohim did in Genesis 1, in bringing forth the earth and its adornments, was done by spewing spoken words. It is hardly reasonable to look around during the day and not see the beauty of the Elohim’s creation, even if the creation is in slavery. At night the heavens report knowledge, the story that we are living through.
As Paul explained in Romans, people have not observed the creation which has made them moronic. The Creator is a life giver. We see this throughout creation, living beings, living plants, living humans. Humans are also life givers having the ability to procreate which the other sons of God do not have. Female angels did not give birth to part angel and part human beings, human females gave birth to hybrid beings. In this creation females are life givers, which is why the devil works overtime to kill the seed of the women. He wants his seed to rise and dominate, putting humans and creation into subjection under him.
Psalms 19:3 G3756 There are no G1510.2.6 G2981 speeches G3761 nor G3056 words G3739 which G3780 [2are not G191 3heard G3588 G5456 1their voices]. G1473
“Are not speech neither word that not indeed hear your sound.”
The day and the night speak words and talk to us. It is obvious. We have the word rhēma, in verse 2, and here in verse 3 we have lalia “speech”, and logos “words”. David seems to be telling us to listen, but not just with our ears. The heavens declare, so we have to look at them and listen to them day and night. We understand this if we go camping in the wilderness, not in a campground because you need distance from man-made light sources. When we are outside, the majesty of the heavens is quite loud. Everyone, all over the planet, can hear the sound of the heaven. It is as if Yahweh can speak into our heart without audible sounds if we sit quietly under a starry sky or in the daylight observing the creation of the Elohim.
We understand vibrations and vibratory patterns. There are sounds that produce light and life and sounds that produce death and destruction. We know that the ancient monks used to sing/chant in solfeggio keys which were dynamically healing, but Pope Gregory declared that they had to change the base frequency (hertz) that they were to sing in because it was too wonderful for the ears of man. No matter, nature still sings in the keys of love, 528 hertz. Humans lost this knowledge for many centuries but in our modern times some people have been able to bring this knowledge to light, even determining the key that David played in, 444 hz. Just as Masaru Emoto discovered the effect that words and tones have on water crystals in a concrete way that we can see with our eyes, there is rhēma, lalia, and logos, being reported throughout the heavens and earth and we have to learn to hear it.

“Into all earth come out your distinct sound and into the extremity occupy your (rhēma) things spoken. In the sun set your dwelling.”
The word phthoggos can be a musical sound. David is saying that there is a rhythm to this rhēma. There are melodies and harmonies. There are leads and accompaniments. This sound, the one we don’t hear with our ears but our heart, goes out into the extremities of the universe and indwell rhēma. The phthoggos indwells rhēma to the utter most part of the universe. Phthoggos comes from phtheggomai, a compound word pheggos and phēmi. It is the light that speaks.
“Light itself does not make any sound but it can be converted to material vibration through being absorbed by matter. So if a molecule floating in the air absorbed a photon and started to move it would be producing a vibration by bumping into other molecules.”
“When light pulse interacts with matter, it can make sound, so yes, light hitting matter can produce sound. The signal is robust, an undergraduate can perform this lab activity, with a laser and microphone, FFT, called photoacoustic spectroscopy. There is also a loud, ionized air-crack, when a YAG laser pulse is focussed in air. The frequencies within that sound are resonances in nitrogen-oxygen bonds breaking.”
Light has a frequency that enters matter, all matter is affected by light. What David is saying is that light speaks. Light indwells rhēma. The rhēma spoken to us is spoken in light. David was not a sun worshipper, he knew the hidden Son. What David is saying is that the sun alone speaks to humans, all over the earth. The good news is the intelligent design that speaks though light. Isaiah said that the people did not listen to the good news the prophets had. Paul says their belief is from spoken audible words and the report is through the rhēma of Elohim.
Romans 10:16 G235 But G3756 not G3956 all G5219 hearkened G3588 to the G2098 good news; G* for Isaiah G1063 G3004 says, G2962 O Lord, G5100 who G4100 trusted G3588 G189 our report? G1473
17 G686 So G3588 the G4102 belief G1537 is from G189 report, G3588 and the G1161 G189 report G1223 through G4487 the word G2316 of God.
18 G235 But G3004 I say, G3378 Did they not G191 hear? G3304 Certainly, G1519 for G3956 [3 unto all G3588 4the G1093 5earth G1831 2went forth G3588 G5353 1their knell], G1473 G2532 and G1519 [2 went unto G3588 3the G4009 4ends G3588 5of the G3611 6habitable world G3588 G4487 1their words]. G1473
Paul quotes David and then asks why Israel didn’t understand the good news was to go out to the nations, ethnos. The heavens aren’t closed so that non Jews can’t see them. The heavens are open, the day shows the majesty of a Creator. Anyone can look at a created thing and worship it, but as Solomon and Paul point out, why not worship the one who created the created thing.
The last statement should connect to the next sentence.
Psams 19:5 G2532 And G1473 he, G5613 as G3566 a groom G1607 going forth G1537 from out of G3956.3 his nuptial chamber, G1473 G21 shall exult G5613 as G1095.2 a giant G5143 running G3598 a journey.
“And you like as nymph, proceed from out past it, rejoice exceedingly like as giant run road.”
The first thing we want to look at is the words for bride and groom. G3565 is numphe nymph, G3566 is numphios. These words have an odd connotation to us, but we can understand them as we are speaking of young people who are dressed beautifully and naturally for a wedding. The idea of a nymph is a beautiful mythological being inhabiting the woods. We might think of J.R.R.Tolkin’s idea of Rivendell and the elves that lived there, in harmony with their surroundings. We might imagine a wedding that would take place in a forest and what the bride and groom would look like. There is a harmony with creation among the numphe and numphios. This is the idea that David is presenting.
The distortion in our time is in the word nymphomaniac, a hyper-sexual person, which probably derived from young married people. In the first century, in the Biblical culture, newlyweds did not receive invitations for two years. One can then surmise the rest.
The word translators used for nuptial chamber is not quite correct. There are several ideas here, and it is somewhat clear that someone altered the text to present a bridegroom coming out of a honeymoon suite. This idea has to connect to the previous sentence. The sun is His dwelling.
"You set dwelling in the sun and you like as nymph, proceed from out past it, rejoice exceedingly like as giant run road.”
Yahweh set his dwelling in the sun, then like a young man getting married, he proceeds out past the sun. He is grand like a giant running down a road. It is a wedding procession, not a honeymoon procession. The groom comes out to gather the bride in grand fashion for the wedding. The idea that the groom comes out of a nuptial chamber is backward. The groom does not exit the honeymoon suite and run down the road like a champion. David saw many giants running. His description of Yahweh here is that he is bigger than man, living in the sun but passing by the sun, coming for his bride in splendor.
Justin Martyr translates this verse in this manner: In the sun, it was the backdrop for it, (6) and as a bridegroom! flowing through it, it is boasted as a giant already operating.
This is quite poetic and brings a sense of Yahweh living behind the sun. Brenton’s Greek has a different approach to this verse.
Psalm 19:5 And the bridegroom who was pasting it, was made to act as a giant there.https://studybible.info/Brenton_Greek/Psalms%2019
The word pasting is not only used like as glue, but can also mean “a beating” or “being severely beaten”. In this idea Yahweh has been making noise and the sun shone upon the bridegroom who defeated the sun like a giant running on a road. The sun could not continue to hide the groom, he pasted it and came for the bride. The next sentence explains Yahweh’s journey.
Psalms 19:6 G575 From G206.1 one tip G3588 G3772 of heaven G3588 is G1841 his exiting, G1473 G2532 and G3588 G2658.1 his arrival G1473 G2193 unto G206.1 the other tip G3588 G3772 of heaven; G2532 and G3756 there is not G1510.2.3 G3739 one who G613 shall be concealed G3588 G2329 from his heat. G1473
“From end the heaven your departure and your downward arrival until end the heaven and is not that kept hidden from your heat.”
Just as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and we feel the heat all day long, Yahweh moves through the heavens, from one end to the other, and we can feel his presence. The ones who receive Yahweh enjoy the feel of his presence. The ones who reject Yahweh bristle at his presence. No one is hidden from Him. He makes a downward arrival. When? The groom is coming for his bride. He is courting his bride now. We have several examples of this, including walking and talking to Abraham as a friend, showing Moses the backside of His glory, and walking throughout Israel healing people and bringing the good news. He made a downward arrival, but will not return to earth again until the end of the tribulation when he comes with his armies to establish His millennial kingdom. At that time the groom comes with his bride.
If we read this Psalm carnally, without spiritual understanding, we might think that David is taking a right turn away from the pleasantness of nature and the creation, but he is not. He now starts to explain that all the words and all the vibrations that bring harmony should draw people to Him and a knowledge of Him which can be felt.
Psalms 19:7 G3588 The G3551 law G3588 of the G2962 lord G299 is unblemished, G1994 turning G5590 souls. G3588 The G3141 witness G2962 of the lord G4103 is trustworthy, G4679 making wise G3516 the infants.
“The ordinance the Yahweh without blame turn around souls.
The testimony Yahweh faithful instruct not yet speaking.”
The ordinances of Yahweh are what holds this earth in place, spinning and revolving. The ordinances of sunrise and sunset, summer and winter, are without blame, they are faultless. This precision and regularity turns souls from death to life. The testimony written all over creation shows Yahweh’s faithfulness and teaches infants and toddlers.
Children see the creation in a spiritual way, while adults have been talked out of the spiritual realm. Humans are life-givers, and the only sons of God to procreate, which is a spiritual attribute that only humans have. Angels don’t birth baby angels, nor does the devil birth baby devils; nor do cherubim, seraphim, or ophanim birth babies of their race either. David is inviting us to understand the universe with spiritual eyes. For those who still reject Yahweh, they end up as morons, as Paul told us.
Psalms 19:8 G3588 The G1345 ordinances G2962 of the lord G2117 are straight, G2165 making glad G2588 the heart. G3588 The G1785 commandment G2962 of the lord G5080.2 is radiant, G5461 giving light G3788 to the eyes.
“The statute Yahweh straight cheer heart.
The injunction Yahweh at dawn illuminate the eye”
The established statutes that Yahweh set up make our hearts cheerful. Even if there are clouds overhead, the sun still rises and sets, whether we see it or not. There will always be a vernal equinox, there will always be a winter solstice, even if we forget about them. Yahweh’s judicial orders are like the dawn, they enlighten our eyes.
The devil may be the god of this world, but he cannot subvert the statutes and injunctions that the Elohim have set in place. The devil cannot alter one day to be 20 hours long and another day to be 27 hours. He cannot stop the sun or turn the sundial back ten degrees. He cannot make the earth stop spinning. He cannot make the earth stop revolving around the sun. The prince of this world cannot change the established and fixed order of the constellations and planets. Neither can he alter gravity. There are immutable things that the devil and the fallen angels cannot change. With that said, they do have some power upon judicial verdict, to conjure a storm. We seem to fixate on a storm and claim that the Elohim who created the universe is “punishing” us. That is simply not true. The accuser is the one advocating for our harm.
Psalms 19:9 G3588 The G5401 fear G2962 of the lord G53 is pure, G1265 abiding G1519 into G165 the eon G165 of the eon. G3588 The G2917 judgments G2962 of the lord G228 are true, G1344 doing justice G1909 to G3588 the G1473 same;
“The phobos terror Yahweh full of religious awe remains into age perpetuity.
The verdicts Yahweh agreeable to truth make righteous on me.”
When we recognize that the immovable and established laws of the universe are fixed, we gain fear and awe of Yahweh. We then develop religious awe and reverence. We start to understand the sacred and pure Lord who is from age to age, perpetually, and in perpetuity; over and over, lasting forever.
Psalms 19:10 G1938.1 desirable G5228 above G5553 gold, G2532 and G3037 [3stone G5093 2precious G4183 1much], G2532 and G1099 sweeter G5228 above G3192 honey G2532 and G2781 the honeycomb.
“Desirably over a piece of gold, and stone valued much, and sweet over honey and honeycomb.”
The spiritual recognition of Yahweh and the masterful works of the Elohim become desirable. We start to hunger for more knowledge. We will give all that we have for more of his words.
Psalms 19:11 G2532 For also G1063 G3588 G1401 your servant G1473 G5442 guards G1473 them; G1722 in G3588 the G5442 guarding G1473 of them G469 [2reward G4183 1 there is great].
“And for the your male slave you keep watch and ward in me keep watch and ward giving back in turn much”
David now points to himself as a male slave or a bondservant. David declares Yahweh keep watch and ward over him and repay David for his service. We may not be used to asking for payment or repayment for service to Yahweh, but David seems rather comfortable bringing it up. Let's think about what David was asking for. Was it money, riches, fame? No. David was really asking for more of Yahweh.
Psalms 19:12 G3900 [3 his transgressions G5100 1Who G4920 2shall perceive]? G1537 From out of G3588 G2931.1 my private transgressions G1473 G2511 cleanse G1473 me!
“False step any one consider from out of hidden you make me clean.”
David realizes that Yahweh knows his sins. He asks to be cleansed from his hidden sins and made clean. We can ask for the blood of Jesus to cleanse our sins.
Psalms 19:13 G2532 And G575 from G245 the aliens G5339 spare G3588 G1401 your servant! G1473 G1437 If G3361 they should not G1473 dominate me, G2634 G5119 then G299 I will be unblemished, G1510.8.1 G2532 and G2511 I shall be cleansed G575 of G266 [2sin G3173 1great].
“And away from another spare your male slave if haply I not gain dominion over at that time, without blame I will be and make clean away from sin great.”
David asks to be spared from other people, other people in Israel, not simply other nations. There were plenty of Israelites who did not like David. David asks to be spared from these others if he does not gain dominion over them. He understands that there is a possibility he would not be victorious on his own. However, he will be blameless and cleansed away from sin.
Psalms 19:14 G2532 And G1510.8.6 [4will be G1519 5for G2107 6benevolence G3588 1the G3051 2oracles G3588 G4750 3of my mouth], G1473 G2532 and G3588 the G3191.1 meditation G3588 G2588 of my heart G1473 G1799 before G1473 you G1275 always, G2962 O lord, G998 my helper G1473 G2532 and G3086 the one ransoming G1473 me.
“And I will be into satisfaction the announcement my speech and the study (revolve in the mind) my heart, before the face of you. Throughout all time Yahweh, my helper and my redeemer.”
David says that he will speak with his mouth for good thinking, and study with his heart before the face of Yahweh. Forever Yahweh is our helper and redeemer. David will speak to Yahweh about Yahweh bringing good will and favor. He says that he will study, meditate, revolve in his mind, and in the thoughts of his heart, in Yahweh’s presence. How do we do this? We have to have quiet time, away from the noise of the world and the craziness of the devil’s world. We cannot have time in His presence for study that is interrupted by the world.
If we lived in David’s time, we simply would go out into the night and read the stars, and the planets. We would go into the fields and notice the creation. Day to day and night to night, the creation has something to say. It is not only for the Jew, but for the nations as well. The day spews rhēma, the night announces knowledge. There isn’t any place on the earth where their voice is not heard. It is up to us to understand his language in our heart. Some worship the things created. We will all be accountable for worshiping the Creator. Recognizing the limitations of the devil’s ability, why wouldn’t we worship the Creator of the universe who comes for us as a groom, pushing aside the sun to come for his bride.
