Meditate On
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of
my life...
Psalm 23:6
Pursue
The Good Shepherd
One day, when I was studying the Word, the Lord said to
me, “Notice how goodness and mercy follow you in Psalm 23:6.” Then, He brought
me to John 10:4, where it describes how the shepherd goes before the sheep and
the sheep follow him.
In a flash, the Lord opened my eyes to see a divine
sequence: When you follow or pursue Him, the good shepherd, His goodness and
mercy and all the blessings you need in life will follow after you!
My friend, don’t pursue the blessings. Pursue the
blesser—Jesus. As you pursue Him, you don’t have to be concerned about the
blessings because they will follow after you! In fact, the Hebrew translation
of Psalm 23:6 is much stronger and more aggressive. It literally says, “Surely
goodness and mercy shall HUNT ME DOWN all the days of my life!”
