What does Psalm 25:2 mean?

Apparently, David is facing a perilous situation as he prays. However, he knows God is not distant, impersonal, or unapproachable. He calls him "my God." This declaration of his personal relationship with God resembles David's statement in Psalm 23:1: "The LORD is my shepherd." David knew his God was trustworthy even in life's most dangerous times.

He asks the Lord to keep him from being victimized by his enemies. David does not want his enemies to disgrace him and boast about what they had done to him. David writes that he trusts in his God. Although David was no stranger to battle, he realized that trust in the Lord is the most effective weapon to employ against an enemy. Jesus said, "Apart from me you can do nothing" (John 15:5). Among the pieces of armor Scripture lists for gaining victory over the Devil is the shield of faith (Ephesians 6:16).
