Read Psalm 16
1. What kind of mood or thinking process do you think that David was in during the writing of this Psalm?
2. What is the significance of David’s recognition that he has no good apart from the Lord?
3. What is the meaning of verse 5?
4. What is a good explanation for the second half of verse 7?
5. David’s strength was in the Lord, where are you putting yours?
6. Why is David’s heart so glad?
7. In verse 11 David says, “You make known to me the path of life,” are these words meant to be descriptive of eternal life that we are given or are they also meant to de a description of walking through this life as well?
8. David’s strength, joy, and security was found in God. If you were to take an honest look at your life would you be able to say the same thing? It is easy sometimes to say it but to actually be living it out is much more difficult. Don’t let your heart be satisfied with the things of this world, ‘cause let’s be honest once again, it never really can be.
