David continues his psalm of praise to God's Word by remembering its permanence. God's Word is forever settled; what it says has happened, has happened and what it says will happen, will happen. It is because of this certainty that David is able to view God's Word as life-giving and protective in times of trouble. Through a study of God's Word, David is able to possess more practical application of knowledge (wisdom) than his foes. God's Word gives him insight into the true nature and scope of every event. God's Word directs David's steps and path through life because it is a singular beacon. It only leads in one direction to one goal, it is not confusing. Although it may be difficult to perceive at times, it always gives consistent instruction. Those who despise and disobey God's word are not favored by David or others who love God's instruction.
