Psalm 23

A psalm of David.

1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, 
he leads me beside quiet waters,

3 he restores my soul. 
He guides me in paths of righteousness 
for his name's sake.

4 Even though I walk 
through the valley of the shadow of death ( through the darkest valley),
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 overflows.

6 Surely goodness and love will follow me 
all the days of my life, 
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD 
forever.

Donnie McClurkin....

* " As I read this and the Lord began to break things down, it is specific that we look at the soul. The spirit is connected to the soul and is separate, our soul gives us self consciousness, it is the seed of our emotions. Our spirit is our connection to God, who we worship in spirit & in truth, but the soul may be jacked up!....Your spirit may be connected, your prayer life may be going great but your soul...is still jacked up! Same cycle....The broken side of you, a broken heart, a broken desire, when your feelings are hurt....But! The Shepherd...GOD heals your soul!!!! He heals your body, soul, so that your body, soul, and spirit is intact.....God deals with the whole man...Body, Spirit & he restores the soul, he gets you well feed, and your thrist is quenched and he heals your soul, he leads you into the path of righteousness...The path of righteousness make us Godly anxious....but you need to know about the path of righteousness...It leads you to a specific place.......Yes, though I walk, You thought it led you into the kingdom of God...but before you reach this. YOU GOTTA TAKE A WALK.... The path of righteousness takes us to a specific path.....Remember the song " Walk with me Lord????" Are you walking with Jesus??? Well, let us see....You think you are walking on the mountain but it is getting dark, you say, Jesus, I can't feel you, it is getting kind of dark in here.....

But that is the path of righteousness!!!!!!! You are in the VALLEY!!!!!!!!!! Jesus Leads you into the path of righteousness, into the shadow of life, You must be tried in life, you gotta go through trials....
BUT DO NOT FEAR!!!!! It may be Dark...But DO NOT FEAR...IT may be SCARY....It may be death all around but KNOW that JESUS is right here with YOU!!!!!! If you ever get to a point of desperation, that is when Jesus shows right up!!!! Tell that devil...BACK UP!!! BACK UP!!! Give him fair warning...tell him Back up back up because Jesus is right here!!!!!!! I will fear No evil for Jesus is with me....

Then....

Notice in the valley of the shadow of death there are serious situations...Life threatening situations...God takes us into Life threatening situations...Not Satan....God put you here, God had to sent you into a place of trials, this is God setting you here, it is not the devil and it is not your sins, let your family, friends, and foes know...God is putting you through this for delivery, cause if you do not go through this valley, God will not break the curses in your life....He has called you to be a champion....



The significance of ROD and the STAFF.....

The shepherd is on the job to protect in the valley, in the valley your life is on the line, you do not know what to expect...The ROD is for the wolves who hide in the darkness....causing you to be afraid...But JESUS arise, standing with the rod and every enemy, every demon, every problem.....
The rod is for the sheep, which means us, when we get out of order, there is dicipline in the design of our life...And the staff is a elongated pole with a hook, if the sheep is moving opposite of the flock, into danger, the Shepherd ( Jesus) pulls you back into his safety....You went to the club.... you tried to get with old friends, what you used to do before you was saved, But Jesus pulled you back into his safety!

In the darkness... you hear the laughing, the mocking of people who said you would never make it, who laughed at you and said your fall is coming, those who said you are going to be no good, you will never be nothing...
But Jesus the shepherd, while your enemies laugh at you...
Jesus gets his fine linen, places it on the table, gets the gold ware not the silverware, it is refined gold, makes it polished....he puts the china out and places it on the table....a table before you in the prescence before your enemies....
Your foes may make laugh, mock, discount you, be little you, disqualify you...
BUT HE, Jesus is making a table.... a feast in you honor....You going to sit down and enjoy your feast!!!!!!!!! 
Your enemies are watching, on the internet, on the TV, on the radio, at your home, on your job, everywhere you go, even in your home!

But Jesus prepared a table for you, and your enemies has to sit there and watch, they can not eat with you because they did not go through, the valley where you went through because you were blessed in the valley of death, shadows, trials, temptation....When you think you are down....
There is no better blessing... than when you are down....

The enemy is counting you out...10,9,8,7, 6....God said, They may be down but they ARE NOT out, after Jesus sets you up.....
Do not waste your life trying , defending yourself against the enemy's report, do not even waste time & energy, and anointing to prove your enemies, because GOD WILL SHOW YOUR ENEMIES WHO YOU ARE!!!!!!!!!! Stop Crying and GROW UP!!! Stop wasting your time on the enemies....that is for babies, that is childish!!!! Who cares about who does not like you, Make them respect the way you stand through their hatred, never bow, never cry....KEEP ON WALKING!!!!! Because before you know it, Enemies will become your friends....Your enemies watched you walk through their fiery darts and you walked through untouched....You made it through....
Every enemy does not stay a enemy....because God will humble them before you. They will want to know how they can be saved, how God brought you through and how they can live right.

Then.....

God takes the oil...the oil is for anointing......
The least to be chosen which is YOU, , the least to be thought of chosen is who GOD is waiting to allow his anointing, to flow.....There is a purpose....because this.....is how those who are not profound, not as qualified as a bishop, an apostle....but you are called, the oil must flow.....

But People do not realize.....Your relationship with God will develop if you are serving God in spirit and in truth, if you are living in the word of GOD.....even though you are not preaching, you may not be singing....God wants to get a message across to you....if there is no people there is no need for a preacher....

People may think you are off....a little off... because you allow the holy Spirit to flow through you, but you have been through the valley of the shadow of death and you are dancing, praising God in tongues, shouting, singing because your cup.....

Your cup....Runneth over, you can dance, sing, shout, praise, speak in tongues....because GOD qualified you and anointed you in your valley and your enemies seen this and they could not stop God's anointing!!!!!! Somebody should be praising God right now, you should be dancing and not clapping because Your CUP......Glory be to GOD!!!!! 

Your CUP......The anointing, the oil is running right now in your room, your cup runs over with joy, you should feel good! God is imparting into someone right now! Somebody is being anointed with oil right now, Your life is being changed, transformed right now, God himself, Jesus the shepherd has anointed your head with oil...You are not there to stay in the valley, so when it is finished, it works patience, patience = hope = the glory of GOD, as you walk out with Jesus leading you....
Take NOTICE!!!!!!
You are being FOLLOWED>>>>>>
BY WHO?????????
JUST MERCY & Goodness... They walked in with you & they are walking out with you, the goodness and mercy fell on you.
All the days of your life....GOODNESS= GRACE, and MERCY shall follow you as long as you exist on this earth, You shall always have.....
All the days of your life....GOODNESS= GRACE, and MERCY shall follow you as long as you exist on this earth....... No matter how you fall....You repent, you get up and the grace of GOD and his mercy is with you....when you leave this earth, your last breath and your last heartbeat....when you cross into the spirit world....God brings you home, into his kingdom.....as you kneel......in his presence....and your faith will become sight and you then can look without the veil, to look into the eyes of the living GOD, and you will hear him say words, smile, and look, and say your name....and say WELL DONE!!!!! WELL DONE MY GOOD & FAITHFUL SERVANT, you were faithful in things, but I will make you ruler over many, come, enter, into the joy of the LORD....
AND THEN....You will dwell in the house of the Lord FOREVER, this is the ultimate goal of the shepherd, Jesus, who wants to lead us victoriously through earth, to walk in obedience in God, to come home to him for eternal life. To be freed of ALL SIN, to walk in true righteousness & in holiness, He wants you to be refined! You can not make excuse, or have any sins, you can not make any excuses for your sins because Jesus will clean you from all parasites, ticks, fleas, no spot or blemish, no stain, no blemish!!! No excuses to sin, Our bodies were not made for sin, sin ages us, it breaks us down we were not made for sin and we were not made to excuse sin, if we are his sheep in his pasture we must be cleaned of all sins!!!
You can not have one foot in secular and one in holy...NO NO NO COME OUT FROM SECULAR beings...
No matter how angry you are.... You can not cuss people out, have an attitude, commit fornification, you know , sleeping around outside of marriage God ordained between a husband, a man, and his God given wife, a woman. This includes addictions......drinking, smoking, and doing drugs! There is a difference between a SHEEP and a GOAT, a sheep knows his or her body does not belong to that person....He or she knows a sheep a person who belongs to GOD, must have a clean temple because they must remain a clean vessel!
If you have sinned and you feel convicted it means your life belongs to God, the design of your life belongs to GOD, and you know that sin stinks to God, it speaks against Jesus's dying on the cross, it goes against everything Jesus died for, it goes against the word of God, it goes against God! 
If your sin convicts you know Forgiveness waits today, you know if this is bothering you it means you feel convicted because you know you are not living right and you ARE a GOAT, not a sheep, but a goat, a goat will eat trash, anything comes into a goat's body...but Your life was designed for freedom not be be bound, hindered, or chained to anything!!!!!!! It is designed for FREEDOM! 

If you are one who feels convicted....
I want you to say.....
In the mighty name of Jesus, Thank you Jesus for your anointing that makes me free.....I repent of my sins, I as that you set me free, of all sins, and that today I shall walk with you JESUS I shall not look back, I shall not be afraid for I know you are here. Today I give up my sinful ways and all that separates me from the word of God, and from your love, your goodness, grace, and mercy....Today, I take your head and you are leading me and I shall follow, I will net let go, I will not return to my sinful ways. I am a child of the most high GOD, ELOHIM....You Lord, I give all honor and praise...I am FREE!!!! I am FREE!! I AM FREE To live without sin! I am free to live a live of grace because you lord will help me get rid of my old ways!!! If you just prayed this prayer...Welcome into the kingdom of GOD, if you did not elect to accept this word, We are still praying for you to be saved!"
