Psalm 51:12 Restore unto me the joy of Your salvation; and uphold me with Your free spirit. (Part of the business of the Holy Spirit is “restoration,” but only if the individual meets God’s conditions, as David did, and as we must do. With unconfessed sin, all “joy” is lost. With sin confessed, cleansed, and put away, the “joy of Salvation” returns. A clean heart, a willing spirit, and a steadfast will are then given by the Holy Spirit.)
13 Then will I teach transgressors Your ways; and sinners shall be converted unto You. (Before Repentance, David was in no condition to proclaim God’s truth to “transgressors,” because he was a transgressor himself.
Upon true Repentance, David was now ready to teach and to preach, and the Holy Spirit attested to that.)
14 Deliver me from blood guiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness. (This refers to the terrible sin of having Uriah, the husband of Bath-sheba, killed [2 Sam. 11:14-21].
Only the consciously pardoned sinner can “sing aloud” of God’s Righteousness. Unpardoned men can speak of His Mercy, but their thoughts about it are unholy thoughts.)
15 O LORD, open Thou my lips; and my mouth shall show forth Your praise. (Proper praise to the Lord cannot go forth as long as there is unconfessed sin. This is the reason for such little praise in most Churches, and far too often the praise which actually is offered is hollow. True praise can only come from a true heart!)
16 For You desire not Sacrifice; else would I give it: You delight not in Burnt Offering. (No penance, sacraments, or costly gifts of Churches or men, regarding expiation of past sins, are desired or accepted by God. Only Faith and trust in Christ and what He has done for us at the Cross can be accepted by the Lord.
Unfortunately, the world tries to create a new god, while the Church tries to create another sacrifice. There is only one Sacrifice for sin [Heb. 10:12].)
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise. (True Repentance will always include a “broken spirit” and a “broken and contrite heart.” Such alone will accept Christ and what Christ has done at the Cross. God will accept nothing less.)
18 Do good in Your good pleasure unto Zion: build Thou the walls of Jerusalem. (Verses 18-19 are not, as some think, a meaningless addition to the Psalm by some later writer. They both belong to the structure and prophetic scope of the Psalm.
David’s sin, confession, and Restoration illustrate this future chapter in Israel’s history. With their idolatry [spiritual adultery] and murder forgiven, they will go forth as messengers of the Gospel to win other nations to wholehearted faith and service in and for Christ.
Upon Israel’s Repentance, the Lord will once again “build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.”)
19 Then shall You be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with Burnt Offering and Whole Burnt Offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon Your Altar. (The sacrificial program under the old system was lawful, because it pointed to the coming Redeemer. Since Christ and the Cross, they are no longer necessary, and for all the obvious reasons. Why the symbol when the substance is available?
During the Millennial Reign, the sacrificial system will be restored, but only as a memorial of what Christ has done at the Cross [Ezek., Chpts. 40-48].)
