“I have set Yahweh always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.”
Psalm 16:8-9 (WEB)
Steadfast in His Presence
In Psalm 16, David speaks to Yahweh, expressing his trust and delight in God's presence, leading to assurance of guidance and protection. Before declaring his heart's gladness, David affirms that Yahweh is always before him, providing stability and safety. The verse uses the phrase 'at my right hand' to signify support and strength, creating a sense of unwavering security. Consider today what presence or practice you set 'before you' regularly. Note its impact on your heart and mind, and try placing a reminder of peace or gratitude in a visible spot to keep a focus on the positive throughout the day.
