The Treasures Of Psalm 23預覽

You shall not want...

“... I shall not want.” (the Bible, Psalm 23:1)

David experienced times of extreme anguish when he was pursued by attackers who had only one goal: eliminating him. This was the case notably with King Saul, his father-in-law, who attempted to kill him several times. Saul was jealous of this valiant young man and feared losing his throne. David had to flee many times and hide alone in deserts, sometimes without water or food.

But David rested in the assurance that the Lord, his shepherd, would take care of him and that he would want nothing.

The Bible declares, “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19)

My God shall supply all your need…

• According to His riches: The apostle Paul uses the Greek word “ploutos” here, which also means abundance.
• In glory: To qualify the word “glory,” Paul uses the Greek word “doxa,” which can also be translated “splendor, radiance, preeminence, the most glorious condition, the highest state.”
• By Christ Jesus: The Bible says that “you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.” (Colossians 2:10)

I believe it and declare it over your life: because the Everlasting God is your shepherd, you shall not want!
