Wisdom Superior to That of Our Teachers (Psalm 119:99)

Psalm 119:99 continues a string of three verses where the psalmist reflects on the outstanding effects of God’s word by listing three groups of people who cannot stand up to its wisdom. In this devotion, we consider how God’s word gives us more wisdom and insight than our teachers, especially when they do not approach their subjects from a biblical, Christian worldview.
