Confidence in God's Word
The psalmist's joy is not based on his own strength but on a specific word from God. Commentators explain that when "God hath spoken in his holiness," it means His promise is guaranteed by His very nature. This teaches that a Christian's ultimate confidence should be placed not in circumstances or personal success, but in the unshakable reliability of God's promises.
