📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Psalm 16
Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
2 I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from you.”
3 As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,
in whom is all my delight.[b]
4 The sorrows of those who run after[c] another god shall multiply;
their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
or take their names on my lips.
5 The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
you hold my lot.
6 The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
7 I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
in the night also my heart instructs me.[d]
8 I have set the Lord always before me;
because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being[e]rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
or let your holy one see corruption.[f]
11 You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

| 0:00.0 | Hello there my friends welcome back to the morning mindset my name is Carrie Green. I am |
| 0:09.0 | here to encourage you this morning that you can live this day in the light of God's truth and you start |
| 0:17.6 | that process by setting your mind in the right place setting your mind on truth, on God's truth. Today we're going to |
| 0:26.1 | dig into some of the details of Psalm chapter 16, which I read kind of in a |
| 0:31.6 | general since yesterday and spoke about. |
| 0:34.0 | But there are some powerful things here in this particular passage that I want us to dig into a little bit. |
| 0:41.0 | Because it is so important for us to ground ourselves in the truth of |
| 0:46.7 | who our God is. There was a writer, pastor, and theologian years ago named a W tozer and a a W tozer and |
| 0:54.0 | A W Tozer said, what you believe about God is the most important thing about you. Stop and let those words sink in for a moment. |
| 1:06.0 | What you believe about God is the most important thing about you. |
| 1:12.0 | I bring that up because this passage reflects a man |
| 1:17.0 | David who believed some very clear and very certain things about his God. And we, if we're going to be like David |
| 1:26.7 | and have the kind of security and joy and zeal that he had in life, need to do the same. We need to get our minds right about our |
| 1:35.8 | God. Who is he? What is he like? What are the benefits that come from |
| 1:40.1 | following him? What is the confidence we can have? Because he is our God. |
| 1:47.0 | Now David says the Lord is his chosen portion and his cup. |
| 1:54.2 | Now he's using some phraseology there that's a little foreign to us because it's dated. |
| 1:59.2 | It's language that's particular to his culture that he lived in. Now when he says God is his chosen portion and his cup he's |
| 2:09.4 | talking about something similar to an inheritance. |
| 2:13.6 | You see each child would receive a portion of their father's goods and their father's |
| 2:19.0 | means as the father passed on the inheritance. And he's saying in this case, |
| 2:23.7 | the Lord is my chosen portion. |
