Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for August 31, 2025. Today’s devotion, “You Will Not Abandon My Soul to Sheol” from Psalm 16:9–11 (ESV), proclaims the ultimate hope of God’s people: victory over death. David rejoices that his heart is glad, his flesh secure, and his soul not abandoned to the grave. Yet these verses reach beyond David to the greater Son of David—Jesus Christ. The apostles Peter and Paul both declare this psalm fulfilled in Christ’s resurrection. Unlike David, Jesus did not see corruption; He was raised in glory on the third day. Because He lives, we too have the assurance that death cannot hold us. Our future is secure, our joy full, and our inheritance eternal. In Christ’s presence there is fullness of joy, and at His right hand are pleasures forevermore.
