Of Jerusalem and ALL of Israel
Psalm 23:5
"Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over."
********
This scripture tells us that he is furnishing us with sustenence,
in the presence - not in the past.
He is constantly supplying us with more than we need,
as a father stretches forth his hand,
to always give the best to his child.
The Lord does this in spite
of those who are against us, and against Him.
Even though we may be surrounded by enemies,
we can feast in security!
Oil was used to honor guests
with perfume, at magnificant feasts.
It was used as a form of lavish hospitality.
When the Psalm says, "my cup runneth over",
it tells us that He goes way beyond mere supply;
He supplies us with abundance!
What a GENEROUS Lord that serves us,
and protects us, His children!
Blessings to all who enter this Garden of Prayer
For His Holy Land, Jerusalem,
For our Nation, and for those with special needs.
