Psa 119:66 | MHM | STEP | v. 66 : David prays, Teach me good judgment and knowledge . He wants to be able to understand and recognize what is true and good, just as people can tell if food tastes good or not. David asks God to help him tell the difference between truth and lies, and between good and evil. This is important because those who have both knowledge and judgment are protected from being tricked by Satan and are ready to serve God and others (Hebrews 5:14 ). David adds another reason for his prayer: For I have believed thy commandments (Psalm 119:66 ). He has accepted God’s laws as good and has chosen to follow them. Because of this, he asks God to continue teaching him. When someone has a willing heart, it is good to pray for the wisdom to understand God’s word even more.
