Good Morning!
 
We are still in Psalms 23:1, and as I have said . . . we will be here for a while! 
 
In Friday's encouragement, I said that I would be giving you scriptures that relate to the three things that The Lord has promised us when we "acknowledge" Him as our Shepherd . . . PROVISION, PROTECTION and DIRECTION.  However, before I get into that, I want to give you some scriptures that will assure you that it is NOT God's will for any of His children to suffer "LACK"!
 
You see, The Lord has given us "covenant promises" concerning "lack", but we still have to be obedient to do what He tells us to do in HIS Word!  These scriptures that I am going to give you will let you know how to KEEP "lack" out of your pasture!  I said that word pasture for a reason.  This will come about as we go along ~~~~
 
Proverbs 28:27 tells us that if we give to the poor, we will not "lack".  Look at the positive side of this "principle" . . . if you have given to the "poor", then you can say, "There shall not be any lack in my pasture"!
 
Psalms 34:9  tells us that if we have a "reverential fear" of The Lord and worship Him with that kind of attitude, we will not "lack" . . . so, if you have that kind of attitude toward God, then you can say . . . "There shall not be any lack in my pasture"!
 
Psalms 34:10  tells us that if we will SEEK after God, we will not lack any beneficial thing!  So, if you are doing what Matthew 6:33 tells you to do . . . then you can say, "There shall not be any lack in my pasture! 
 
I will close with this . . . If you will do what is written in James 1: 2 - 4, then you will be "mature" in the ways of God, and you will be "lacking" in NOTHING!  Praise God!!!!
 
Tomorrow, I will let you know why I was saying that you could "confess" that there would be no lack in your pasture, and then I will be getting into the scriptures that talk about the "covenant" of PROVISION, PROTECTION and DIRECTION!
 
I encourage you to read all of the above "scriptures".  Think about it . . . If you are not satisfied to live with "lack", then you will be willing to do whatever it takes to get rid of it!  So, take time to read God's Word and "get a revelation" . . . and then you can say, (out loud, and out of your mouth) . . . " I SHALL NOT LACK"! 
 
Have a Blessed Day!!       (Say this: "I SHALL NOT LACK"!)     In His Love, Luanne
