In this week’s edition of Words of Grace, we share a recent message by Ben Winslett from the 16th Psalm.
Psalm 16, a Messianic Psalm, reminds us that because Christ was raised from the dead, our flesh can rest in hope. Trust and hope—two crucial words—offer us peace in the face of loss. Trusting in God means placing our loved ones in His hands, knowing that death is inevitable but not final. Hope, in the biblical sense, is not mere wishful thinking but a confident expectation rooted in God’s promises.
Romans 8:29-30 beautifully outlines the unbreakable chain of our salvation: foreknown, predestined, called, justified, and glorified. From eternity past to eternity future, God preserves His people. As Psalm 23 so powerfully declares, even as we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we fear no evil, for the Lord is with us.
Because Christ has conquered death, we can rest in hope and trust in the preservation of our souls.
