Psalm 49:15 (NKJV) 15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave, For He shall receive me. Selah
What is your confidence in today, your ability to do your job, maybe the skill to drive safely, could it be you are satisfied with who you are, or that you can take care of yourself? The Psalmist sees life through the eyes of redemption, he puts his trust in God alone for we all find the grave, wether we seek it or not. Trusting the flesh will only disappoint, for time erases all our efforts of self serving and washes them into nothing. No matter how successful we strive to be or have become, nothing we accumulate will go with us in to eternity. Satisfaction in this life will only come when we acknowledge our need of a Savior and trust Him completely.
Jesus is the only person ever to go to the grave and walk out, He alone can satisfy the restless weary soul and send peace into the heart of the lost. Are you confident that you will spend eternity with God? You can say with confidence "God will redeem my soul" if you trust Jesus Christ today!
Heavenly Father, as we pause for reflection (Selah) may the faith that pleases you overwhelm us with the knowledge that we are yours through your Son Jesus, and nothing can take us out of your hands. Amen
