Psalms 119:60

I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

This declaration belongs to a psalm that exalts God's law. Within that setting, keeping the commandments is set inside the rule of life established by God's Word. David turned his attention to God's testimonies and then acted quickly to do what God commanded, refusing to postpone it. Keeping God's commandments therefore calls for willing obedience that is immediate and does not hesitate. Such obedience stands in direct contrast to defiance of God's law.
