The Lips and The Heart
"May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer." Psalm 19:14
Sweeter
"They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb." Psalm 19:10
The human being has a void. He is missing something unknown. All of his dissatisfaction is in fact a hunger and a thirst for God. It's a hunger in his spirit but he doesn't know it. When the Word of God is revealed to him, he finds an inexhaustible treasure that grants him access to an infinite God. From that moment his heart rests in total reliance on Divine thoughts.
The Law of God restores the soul and gives joy to the spirit; it is for this reason that His teachings are sweeter than honey.

Clean
"The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether." Psalm 19:9
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge (wisdom).
It is the reverence for His Word - and as long as we are listening and practicing it - it becomes clear and transparent in our lives; branding us as children of God, with His character, that everyone around us will be able to see.
Those who fight for spiritual survival are overcomers everyday and thus attain eternal life.
God's standards are both true and fair.
