One Psalm a Day | Psalm 16 | KJV | BIBLE READING

Psalm 16 is a psalm of trust and celebration in God's protective presence, written by David and is appropriate for Easter because it supports the idea of resurrection. The psalm expresses David's joy in his relationship with God, and his belief that God is his safe place from evil and enemies. David rejects the idea that he will be abandoned in death, and instead looks forward to eternity with God.
Here are some insights from Psalm 16:
Trust in God
David asks God for protection, and expresses his belief that God is his only source of good. He says, "Preserve me, O God! from the deaths, and especially from the sins, to which I am continually exposed; for in thee, and in thee only, do I put my trust".
Security in God
David feels secure in God's presence, even in the face of death, because he knows his eternal destiny is assured. He says, "With him at my right hand nobody will move me".
Looking forward to eternity
David's celebration foreshadows the Messiah, who would conquer death and experience resurrection. Verses 10-11 of the psalm are referenced in the New Testament by evangelists when referring to the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
