The Lord promises that if we follow Him we will not
“lack any good thing”. THE KEY IS allowing Him to
lead us. This week we are praying and learning to
“Be Led by the Lord” into the blessings He has for
us. Thank You for joining us, and as always, we wel-
come your thoughts and prayers.
Your soul is your mind, intellect, emotions, and your will.
God wants to “fix this” first; Then your physical being will
follow it into the promised blessings. TODAY WE ARE
PRAYING FOR THE SPIRIT TO LEAD US INTO “SOUL
RESTORATION”.
We associate this prayer with being led by the Lord
into Heaven at the end of our lives. Though it does
apply, God also wants to lead us through the trials
and challenges we face; And in difficult times, we
can follow Him to His blessings, His peace, and His
provision. TODAY WE ARE PRAYING to stay focused
on The Lord, and learn to follow Him every day.
The “oil” is the Holy Spirit and the “banquet table” is
the blessing on the other side of the trial. TODAY WE ARE
PRAYING that we will not allow the trial to distract us from
the blessings and rewards that are promised if we stay
connected to the Lord.
“Goodness and Mercy” are promised as the result of
STAYING IN THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD.
Worship God to stay close to Him at all times,
AND YOU WILL LIVE IN THE BLESSINGS PROMISED TO THOSE WHO DO SO.
PSALM 23
TO BE LED BY CHRIST INTO GOD'S COMFORT AMID LIFE'S TOUGHEST TRIALS / BATTLES
As usual in trials (and in the prayers of the Psalms)
we end with a faith declaration to keep us connected to The Lord.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul;
He leads 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 You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
