You will Show Me the Path of Life

We who believe in Christ here this afternoon, should be able to identify with King David. We can joyfully and truthfully say that it is Christ’s having died, and His having been raised from the dead, that has blessed us with every present and future blessing of our salvation. It is His resurrection which assures us of the reality of our faith, of our own future resurrection, and our obtaining everlasting life. With the time that we have, I want to recount three of the greatest blessings of our salvation; blessings which are mentioned directly in this text. There are many more than three; but before we come the Lord’s table, I want to give you these. They will be sufficient spiritual points of truth to allow us to feed upon the wonderful things which Christ has done for us. Christ, by His resurrection power, will show us the path of life. 1st of all - Christ shows the believer the right path spiritually; that their goodness is nothing apart from Him. (Verses 1-3) Secondly, He shows the believer the right path, spiritually, in that their happiness will be found in hastening after Christ. (Verse 4-6) And Thirdly, He shows the believer the right path, spiritually, by telling them how they will be sustained in their faith all the way through this life. (Verses 7-11) Let us come and find comfort and consolation in Christ this morning, through the strength of these verses.
