Psalm 139 is one of the grandest of all the Psalms, for it brings us face to face with the majesty and power of God. Immediately it exalts God as all knowing and omnipresent, and clearly shows that all of man's life is in God's hands.
There are three key ideas set forth in the psalm. The first is God's intimate knowledge of the psalmist (Psalm 139:1,2,4,6,14,23 (twice)). Second, God searches man's ways as a judge scrutinizes evidence that is brought into court (Psalm 139:1,3,23-24).

This extends to everything a person does, thinks, and says, even before those actions occur. As stated elsewhere in the Bible, God's mind is inexpressibly beyond that of any person (Isaiah 55:8–9).
This Psalm teaches the believer, not to be silent about his or her anxieties and pain. In the end, the author prays: “lead me in the way everlasting,” which is equal to: “walk with the Lord” and to: “live in communion with God (Jn 17:3).
