Recapture
Easter resurrection of Jesus Christ demonstrates that true security in life comes from God. In Psalm 16, we see David facing two dangers that could have made his world insecure, namely the dangers of loosing his life and compromising his faith. Yet, David was far from being a complete basket case paralyzed by fear and insecurity. Instead, David found security in insecure time.
- How was David secured by relationship with God? (Psalm 16:2 & 5)
- How did David’s delight in God’s people help him be secured in God? (Psalm 16:3)
- How did David find security in God through God’s truth? (Psalm 16:4, 7-8)
- How was David anchored by the hope of deliverance from death? (Psalm 16:10)
Reflect & apply
For David, it was the hope of deliverance from death that anchored him securely in God. But, for Christians, our hope is the resurrection from death in Christ. God mightily has demonstrated his power over death and sin by raising Jesus from death. This amazing act of God is the foundation for all our hope.
- What makes your life insecure these days?
- Where and how do you find security in insecure time?
Pray
Lord, help us be secured by the hope of resurrection in insecure time!
