TLIC Psalms. September 27. None Who Stumbled.
To live is Christ places us firmly within every promise of God. The promise of a home. The promise of blessing. The promise of no condemnation. The promise of his presence. The promise of his preservation. Like Israel before us, not a single foot will stumble on our way to glory.
TLIC Psalms. September 25. He Turned Their Hearts.
The psalmist wants his readers to know that if they are IN Israel than they are part of God’s great big plan. And I want you to know today that if you are IN Christ you too are part of God’s great big plan. Do you believe this? Can you see it? To live is Christ requires both.

TLIC Psalms. September 23. On Their Account.
The psalmist is reminding us not of the patriarch’s great moral example that we must follow (far from it), but of the great grace of God that we must trust by faith. Faith alone in grace alone is what to live is Christ requires. The morality will follow faith, in this life and definitely in the next. Until then let Christ be you Savior first and the only example you need second.
TLIC Psalms. September 22. He Remembers His Covenant Forever.
To live is Christ places us firmly within the covenant promises of Christ, and within the land of his love. A forever home of goodness and mercy all the days of our lives. Forever.
