How can a King die for His people and yet reign over them? How can a crucified King gather subjects from every nation, receive the worship of generations yet unborn, and govern an everlasting kingdom? Psalm 22 leaves us with those questions. Psalm 16 provides the answer. In this remarkable Messianic Psalm, David speaks beyond himself and points us to the Lord Jesus Christ—the King who trusted His Father perfectly, entered the grave willingly, and rose again in triumph.

This Psalm takes us from the trust of Christ, to the resurrection of Christ, to the joy of Christ in the presence of His Father. Discover why Peter and Paul both saw Psalm 16 as a prophecy of the resurrection, why every false god multiplies sorrow, and why everlasting joy is found not in pursuing pleasure, but in pursuing God Himself.
