Welcome back to the morning mindset. I hope you're ready to get your mind aligned with the

truth of God. We are just going to dive right in this morning to Psalm chapter 16 and I

want to do so by asking you a question. Have you ever been

around a person who is entirely committed and convinced about something. It may be some health product, it may be a way of

education or an educational methodology, it may be an exercise routine that they are just committed to.

And when you're around someone like that, have you noticed that they continually talk

about it, they continually tout the benefits of it. They want everyone to

know what they have found. And today's Psalm is a Psalm very much like that. It is a Psalm that demonstrates to us what it is like to be a

person who is fully committed to God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I want to read this and

I want you to just listen to the language, listen to the confidence behind David's

words here. Preserve me, oh God, for in you I take refuge.

I say to the Lord, you are my Lord.

I have no good apart from you.

As for the Saints in the land, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.

The sorrows of those who run after another God shall multiply.

There drink offerings of blood I will not pour out or take their names on my lips.

The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup. You hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me and

pleasant places. Indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

I bless the Lord, who gives me counsel in the night, and in the night also my heart instructs

me.

I have set the Lord always before me because he is at my right hand I

shall not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my whole being rejoices. My flesh also dwells secure.
