Psalm 19
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handiwork, Day unto day unttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.”
As David thought of the light and beauty of the moon and stars at night and the bright sun each day, he said they were like a voice telling of the glory of God! The beauty of the heavens has not been for just a few days or a few nights, but every day and every night ever since they were created. There is no place where they cannot be seen. It seems now, as it did to David, that the Sun is like a strong man running a race across the sky, while giving the earth light and warmth. These verses are beautiful ones for us all to learn.
There are several verses of this 19th Psalm which tell of the words of God: they are called the law, the testimony, the statutes, the commandments, and the judgments; when David was the king over Israel, he could have gold and many choice things, but see what he says of God’s words:
“More to be desired are they than gold, yea than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.”
