I Have Set The Lord Always Before Me; Because He Is At My Right Hand, I Shall Not Be Shaken.


I Have Set The Lord Always Before Me; Because He Is At My Right Hand, I Shall Not Be Shaken.

Psalm 16:8

I have set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

 CHORUSES

Take your place Lord

I am your vessel Lord and nothing more

When you’re done please take the glory, I am satisfied just to see you gloried

Thanks Thanks we give you thanks for all you have done, we are so blessed, our souls has found rest oh Lord we give you thanks

This Psalm  encourages us to be ‘resolved whatever comes our way, to keep the Lord always before us; and in doing that, we will find strength in the Lord’.

The verse that we consider is made up of two parts. First, the psalmist expresses a firm resolve. He says, “I have set the Lord always before me.” To set the Lord before us means to have a deliberate and conscious resolve to have God, front and center, in all of our lives and in all of our  thinking, so that the thought of God captivates all of our senses and all our  activity and focus in life. God will help us to do this always, in every situation, whatever comes our way, in every pleasure, in every trouble. Nothing in our  lives should  be a distraction, to take our thoughts and our mind and our eye of faith away from God. In every responsibility, in every relationship, in every temptation, in every difficulty, even in the prospect of death, we will not be distracted from focusing on God.

In the second part of the verse, the psalmist speaks of the resulting strength: “because he is at my right hand,” he says, “I shall not be moved.” The psalmist wants us to be in a solid position. We should be strong. We should  not waver or doubt, and that is because we  know that the Lord God, Jehovah, the faithful, unchanging covenant God, is at our right hand and is our helper.

This morning we will be looking at this verse from the perspective of a believer looking up to God gives us hope that goes beyond whatever life may throw at us. Hebrews 12 says that, for the joy that was set before Him, He endured the cross. In the last verse of Psalm 16, “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore

As believers, we confess again that we  have set the Lord always before us.” That is a resolve, a resolution, that we make as believers. We do this, first of all, intentionally. It is a personal determination not to turn our eyes from God. It is a personal determination to turn our eyes from the things of this earth to God.

 There were believers who were afraid, or angry, who stole, who killed, who committed adultery, who in pride were lifted up, who served other gods, who broke the Sabbath day, who offered false worship, and on and on—people who did this because they did not set the Lord before them. Just think of David. He saw Bathsheba. He took his eyes off God and he looked on her. Later he confesses, in Psalm 51, “Against thee, thee only, have I sinned.” That sin started when he did not set the Lord before him.

Then, on the other side of it, we have an example of Elijah, one who did set the Lord before him. In I Kings 17:1, Elijah stands before Ahab and he says this: “As the Lord God of Israel liveth before whom I stand, there shall be no dew nor rain these years but according to my word.” It was because he lived before the Lord that he had the confidence to stand in the presence of the wicked king Ahab and speak this word of judgment.

And, again, in Scripture there are many examples of this. Just think of what Hebrews 11 says of those who “saw him who was invisible,” God. Hebrews 11:33-38 says this: That they, seeing Him who was invisible, “subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens,” and so on. They had this firm resolve to set the Lord before them.

Do You And I  Have That Firm Resolve?

Then, in the second place, this resolution is something that we do constantly as believers. “I have set the Lord always before me.

Psalms_18-3

How I love you, Lord!
You are my defender.


2 The Lord is my protector;

My God is my protection,
and with him I am safe.
He protects me like a shield;
he defends me and keeps me safe.


3 I call to the Lord,
and he saves me from my enemies.
Praise the Lord!


4 The danger of death was all around me;
the waves of destruction rolled over me.


5 The danger of death was around me,
and the grave set its trap for me.


6 In my trouble I called to the Lord;
I called to my God for help.
In his temple he heard my voice;
he listened to my cry for help.

the foundations of the mountains rocked and quivered,

Psalms_12-5

Help us, Lord!
There is not a good person left;
honest people can no longer be found.


2 All of them lie to one another;
they deceive each other with flattery.


3 Silence those flattering tongues, O Lord!
Close those boastful mouths that say,


4 “With our words we get what we want.
We will say what we wish,
and no one can stop us.”


5 “But now I will come,” says the Lord,
“because the needy are oppressed
and the persecuted groan in pain.

I will give them the security they long for.”

6 The promises of the Lord can be trusted;
they are as genuine as silver
refined seven times in the furnace.

and everyone praises what is evil.
Keep us always safe, O Lord,
and preserve us from such people.
