Psalm 119:162
I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil.
Great spoil brings to mind the booty to be garnered after a battle and this is indeed so. The battle is to transform my heart from a scene of wickedness and depravity to a garden of Your delights. The great spoil is life lived in Your presence according to Your will.
