My Inheritance and Cup
Psalm 16:5
The Upward Look
by Max D. Hutto,
“The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot.” Psalm 16:5 NASB
In contrast to those who rush to follow false gods and ideologies, David confidently trusts in the LORD, the great I AM, the God who desires to be in a personal covenant relationship with His people. David finds security and satisfaction in what the Lord has provided for him, his portion and cup in life, and in knowing that He will support, sustain, and maintain his lot, his place in life. The Lord abundantly blesses His people with a great inheritance, a full life and an eternity to spend with the Lord, worshiping and serving the Lord.
Lord Jesus, You are my inheritance and the joy of my life, now and for eternity. I take delight in knowing You and walking daily in Your ways, honoring and glorifying You.
