1 Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. Psalm 16:1 A MIKTAM OF DAVID

2 Psalms 16, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60 THE MIKTAMS OF DAVID. WHEN THE PHILISTINES SEIZED HIM IN GATH WHEN HE FLED FROM SAUL, IN THE CAVE WHEN SAUL SENT MEN TO WATCH HIS HOUSE IN ORDER TO KILL HIM WHEN HE STROVE WITH ARAM- NAHARAIM AND WITH ARAM-ZOBAH

3 Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. Psalm 16:1 A MIKTAM OF DAVID

4 Psalm 12:1-2 Save, O LORD, for the godly one is gone; for the faithful have vanished from among the children of man. Everyone utters lies to his neighbor; with flattering lips and a double heart they speak.

5 Psalm 12:8 On every side the wicked prowl, as vileness is exalted among the children of man.

6 Psalm 13:1-4 How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? Consider and answer me, O LORD my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, lest my enemy say, I have prevailed over him, lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.

7 Psalm 13:5-6 But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me.

8 Psalm 14:1-3 The fool says in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds, there is none who does good. The LORD looks down from heaven on the children of man, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.

9 Psalm 14:7 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

10 Psalm 16:1-3 A MIKTAM OF DAVID Preserve me, O 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.

11 1 Peter 2:9-10 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

12 Philippians 2:14-16 Do all things without grumbling or questioning, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I may be proud that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.

13 Psalm 16:4 The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply; their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out or take their names on my lips.

14 Psalm 16:5-6 The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

15 Psalm 16:5-6 The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. God s PROVIDENCE God s PURPOSE to give us rest to comfort us

16 Psalm 16:7-8 I bless the LORD who gives me counsel; 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.

17 Psalm 16:7-8 I bless the LORD who gives me counsel; 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. God s PROVIDENCE God s PURPOSE God s PRESENCE to give us rest to comfort us to guide us

18 Psalm 16:9-10 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure. For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol, or let your holy one see corruption.

19 Psalm 16:9-10 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure. For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol, or let your holy one see corruption. God s PROVIDENCE to give us rest God s PURPOSE to comfort us God s PRESENCE to guide us God s POWER to save us

20 Acts 2:24-28 God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.

21 Acts 2:24-28 For David says concerning him, I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken; therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced; my flesh also will dwell in hope. For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, or let your Holy One see corruption. You have made known to me the paths of life; you will make me full of gladness with your presence.

22 Psalm 16:11 You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

23 Psalm 16:11 You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. PATH OF LIFE PRESENCE PLEASURES FOREVERMORE
