Psalm
19:1
The
heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the
work of His hands.
Paul
expands on this taking it to a serious conclusion.
Romans
1:18-20
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.

Even
those who might say they never heard the Gospel will still be held accountable,
for God has revealed Himself in creation and anyone who calls out to Him, God
will send the Gospel.
Psalm
19 also reminds us of the truth of the scriptures and their value in providing
us with our moral code. The Bible is exactly what we need to live life as God
has called us to.
Psalm
19:7-8
The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.

The
truth is God’s ways are perfect and in His law, we find the answer to finding
joy.
Psalm
19:9-11
The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the LORD are true; they are righteous altogether. They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb. Moreover, by them Your servant is warned; In keeping them there is great reward.

David
finishes this great psalm with a prayer; a prayer we all need to pray.
Psalm
19:12-14
Who can discern his errors? Acquit me of hidden faults. Also keep back Your servant from presumptuous sins; Let them not rule over me; Then I will be blameless, And I shall be acquitted of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my rock and my Redeemer.

The
final words speak of the coming messiah; Lord Jesus, our rock, our redeemer.
