You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
Psalms 16:11
Question
Am you seeking the path that leads to God’s presence, or are you asking God to bless the path you’ve chosen for yourself?
Context
Psalm 16 is a song of trust written by David. Surrounded by uncertainty, David declares his confidence in the Lord as his refuge and portion. He refuses to run to idols or depend on worldly security. Instead, he looks to God as the source of his direction, his joy, and his eternal hope. This verse captures David’s complete assurance that God’s presence is not just a destination, it’s a way of life.
Application
Life often feels like a maze that is full of decisions, detours, and dead ends. But David reminds us that God doesn’t leave us to figure it out on our own. He makes known the path of life. The same God who spoke the world into existence is willing to guide your steps day by day. Ask God daily to show you His path, not just your plans.
Truth For The Day
God’s presence is my pathway and His joy is my strength.
Pray
Lord, thank You for making known to me the path of life. Teach me to walk in Your ways and not my own. Help me to find joy not in circumstances, but in Your presence. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
