I use something similar but thought I'd mention this 'bug' that can happen:
when you INSERT '%wa_message' into 'data', bear in mind your typed message will replace %wa_message.
if that typed message contains an apostrophe, your message won't send.
why?
the apostrophe effectively closes 'data' insert and the rest of the text isn't understood by sqlite.
examples:
'i'm not going to work' - won't work because only 'i' will be inserted into data,
sqlite won't know what to do with m not going to work'
'im not going to work' - on the other hand WILL work!
'this will work, won't it' - won't work because of the apostrophe, the text t it' will be left over and cause an error
'this will work, wont it' - will work
so be careful with apostrophes and sqlite whatsapp messages!
(this "bug" took me AGES to work out!)

Since part of the commands are in Spanish, I thought of recreating them my Tasker [English] and share it here.
A3 ~ A9 below are copied and modified from the original source.
For this task, I use
- SQLite Installer
- Rooted Galaxy Nexus - Android 4.1
- Whatsapp v2.11.23
Send Whatsapp (491)
Run Both Together

A9: Kill App [ App:WhatsApp Use Root:On ]
Description
A1 ~ A2 :
For processing message received from Autoremote by joaomgcd [Ignore if you don't use it]
A3 ~ A7 : Setting up necessary variables
A8 : The command to insert data into msgstore.db
A9 : On my phone, this action is required for Whatsapp to send the message.
However, it doesn't seem to exit Whatsapp (My whatsapp will just to blank and come back again).
Note:
On my phone
- It takes 30~40 seconds to send a message when my screen is off.
- 10~12 seconds when Whatsapp is opened.
- The message is not shown in Whatsapp's homepage. (It is shown in the conversation)
- The entire task takes 1~2 seconds to run.
