Psalm 16:9-10

9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
or let your holy one see corruption.

—————

One thousand years before Jesus died on the cross, David predicted Jesus’ resurrection. He also, by divine inspiration, said that the Lord would not desert Jesus’ soul and the “holy one” would not be allowed to undergo corruption.

David expresses joy in believing that not even death will separate him from fellowship with the Lord. He will survive death and enjoy unending pleasure in the Lord’s presence.

One thousand years after David’s prediction, the resurrection gave Jesus’ believers hope that one can overcome sin and experience eternal life. His resurrection transformed his followers from fear and doubt to faith.

Today, just like David and the early followers of Jesus, with trust and confidence in God’s faithfulness, we too can feel anchored in our relationship with Him. We also can feel secure that our eternal life is assured.

Because Jesus lives, every believer will live also!!!!!
