The Lord will be our Guide even to death!

When we look to God daily, for guidance and strength, instead of this world, or even ourselves, He is there; our God forever and ever. He will guide us, even until we die, like a shepherd leads His sheep, the people of His pasture.

Psalm 48 speaks of God’s mighty hand in Zion, God’s holy city. Jerusalem is protected by the mighty hand of God. This is not only true of Israel, but of every single person who looks to God in times of great distress, and he guides and protects them, and the world around them, and Satan, the god of this world, has no influence on them.

Those who put their faith and hope in the Lord will come to know Him as their shepherd and they will lack no good thing. They will be healthy; spiritually, physically, emotionally, and mentally. 

They will be prosperous; not necessarily in a worldly, material kind of way, but on the inside, at the core of their being, their soul. They will come to know and develop the mind of Christ, and will exercise sound Wisdom, discretion and discernment.  He will be our God, and we shall be His people.

His unfailing love shall dwell in temples not made with hands, but in the temples of our hearts, as we come to know Him, deeply and intimately, like Abraham, David, the prophets,and the apostles.  Then we will be able to live in the world, while not being friends with it. We will live as citizens of God’s kingdom, which starts in our hearts and spreads to others, as they see Him at work in us, in our daily lives.

As the salt of the earth and the light of the world, we will season this world with flavor and preserve those who become salted. As they see the good works that God is doing in and through us, our lives will shine brightly, glorifying God in heaven.

Psalms 48:9-10 NLT
[9] O God, we meditate on your unfailing love as we worship in your Temple. [10] As your name deserves, O God, you will be praised to the ends of the earth. Your strong right hand is filled with victory.

Isaiah 58:11 NKJV
[11] The Lord will guide you continually, And satisfy your soul in drought, And strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered garden, And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

Psalms 1:1-3 NLT
[1] Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. [2] But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. [3] They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.
