You shall lack no good thing!

"Fear not, for I will show you kindness...and will restore you...and you shall eat at my table always...[even though you are imperfect and sinful]..." 2 Samuel 9:7,13

God gave David amazing abundance, grace and mercy, not only for his family, but for those less fortunate around him.  David was not perfect. No, he had moments of severe sin, pain and lack just like us. Well, thanks be to Jesus dying on the cross for all of our imperfections, we too can receive the full gift of God's amazing abundance, mercy and grace, for ourselves, our families, and for those in need.  

We, like David, are worthy of God's amazing abundance. Yes, we are worthy because those of us that know Jesus as our personal Lord and Savior can stand on the firm foundation that we are His children, and in spite of our lack, imperfections, hurt and pain, we believe that He will provide and heal all things, in all situations, and at all times of our lives.

Yes, it is OK to want, but it is not OK to fall into the worldly flesh to get it. No, it is time to know that our Mighty God will fill all of our wants and desires when He knows that we will be most blessed, leaving us standing in awe of who He is and what we are witnesses to.
