Psalm 23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

First of all, God should be Lord of our lives – not only Savior. When we are submitted to Him, we are not in want. That doesn’t mean there are not some desires we have, but our desire to honor Him comes before any other.

Example: I found the phone I wanted for an incredible deal and my husband said that the Spirit told him not now. I submitted because I am called to submit to my husband and I trust God.

Psalm 23:2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters.

God has seen the future and has already prepared positions, means, opportunities and more for us just as a shepherd goes ahead of his sheep and prepares a place for his sheep to graze and rest.
