I was asked after today’s message from Psalm 91 if I could make the application points available for further meditation and study.  I did rush through them pretty quickly, which I regret, so I’ve posted the four high-level points below.  I encourage you to ask God to grow your confidence in Him by applying these Gospel truths to your fears:

• Christ faced His most fearful day with unfailing confidence so we would prevail over our struggles, doubts and fears

• Christ was abandoned in His darkest hour so we would never be abandoned

• Christ received the undiluted, red-hot wrath of God so we would never receive God’s punishment

• Christ conquered Satan and death when He rose on day 3 so we would never be under the power of sin or the grave

May these points continue to encourage your hearts and renew your God-confidence, as they are doing for me!
Josh

P.S.  Also, if you’re interested in more reading on Christ in the Psalms, I highly recommend the small paperback The Messiah and the Psalms: Preaching Christ from All the Psalms by Richard Belcher.
