Many decades ago I was facing severe trials. Reading His word was more than just reading it. I poured over it searching for something, a word that would speak to me personally. Something that I can grab onto and hold on for dear life. One day I saw the words in Psalms 16:8, "I have set the Lord always before me, because He is at my right hand therefore I shall not be moved." It was in that moment that the Holy Spirit illuminated that passage. It became more than ink and paper. Those words became "alive and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, and they became my anchor.

It was as if God Himself carved those words into my heart, and to this day they remain fixed, tried and true. I did exactly what the words said. I instantly put those words to use and exercised them "always." I can with certainty say that I am living proof that when I had set myself to set Christ before me, I made it out alive "because He was at my right hand." You see, setting God before you, is more than what we all think, there is so much eternally more.

David went on in that scripture saying, "Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope." There was an outcome to setting the Lord always before him. It gave him joy and deep heart gladness. His tongue rejoiced in God, and his physical body rested in hope. Because God was at His right hand, and David was aware of it "always." The increasing beauty of it was David began to see the eternal world and the resurrection as he aged. Further yet his eyes began to see into the heavenly glory. He knew that there was a path that led there, and Who it was that would lead him there.

"Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore." So we see here that David was seeing the eternal, spiritual highway that leads to heaven where the Lord is. Where Christ sits on the right hand of the Father. Make sure you set the Lord always before you, then you will see that He is at your right hand and you will never be moved. On earth He stands on our right hand, in heaven we will stand on his right hand forevermore.
