Psalm 23:5-6 (TPT)
5
You become my delicious feast
even when my enemies dare to fight.
You anoint me with the fragrance of your Holy Spirit; you give me all I can drink of you until my heart overflows.
6
So why would I fear the future? For your goodness and love pursue me all the days of my life. Then afterward, when my life is through, I’ll return to your glorious presence to be forever with you!
Pause in his presence
Lenten Reflection: The enemy does not have a chance when Christ in you rises up through you to live the Word in the power of the Holy Spirit. Our Lord is gentle and kind as he guides us, but he is the Lion to the enemy who seeks to rob us. Our duty to our King and Lord is to get into agreement with him. Are you fearful of the future? Please don’t be afraid. You are pursued by a holy and good God. Run to him and invite his goodness to fill you until your heart overflows.
Prayer: Lord, please anoint me with the fragrance of your Holy Spirit. Fill my heart until I overflow with your goodness and love. Make me a blessing to others and keep me moving forward for the advancement of your Kingdom. Be glorified in my life, today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
