The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. Psalms 23:1
This verse is familiar with a powerful message for His children. It is worthy of our meditation and our full comprehension of His role as the Good Shepherd. He provides for all of our spiritual and natural needs. Food, shelter, safety, peace, deliverance, comfort, healing and joy are all available from the Savior. He is my Shepherd; I have all that I need. My provisions are met. What is required for me to achieve my purpose is available to me. This is a state of abundance and a promise that we should hide in our heart and inhabit our thinking. Where I am right now with what I have right now is enough. The Shepherd, our Savior, is leading. His grace for me is sufficient. He is preparing me at each juncture for the next step ahead. The Shepherd provides for all of my needs. I lack nothing, as I follow Him. And I am thankful.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Psalms 23
