David knew that God 's word was truth and not only contained truth but embodied truth. His request begins with, don 't take the word of truth out of my mouth. Without God 's counsel it is the blind leading the blind. David knew without God 's truth he was no good to others or himself. A great illustration of this is found in 2 Samuel 16.A man named Ahithophel was David 's advisor. it 's said of him, vs. 23, and the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled, in these days, was as if a man had enquired of God. When David 's son Absalom tried to overthrow the kingdom, Ahithophel defected and joined allegiance with Absalon. As a result God confounded the counsel of Ahithophel to the point of stupidity and he went and hanged himself. David had trust in God as an obedient follower of him, that he would an unrestricted access to truth.
