I Shall Not Want - That's Resources

  Psalms 23:1-6 - “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2  He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 3  He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. 4  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. 5  You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. 6  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life;  And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.”             A very key passage of Scripture this year is the Twenty-third Psalm.

And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.” Jesus died and rose again so we can be victorious over sin. I John 5:5 says, “Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?”  I Peter 2:24 says, “who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to si
