The Secret to Security and Satisfaction (3 of 5)
Dr. Ernest L. Easley
Psalm 23:1-6

Everybody wants to know a secret! And yes .. it is easier to know a secret than to keep secret. Somebody once said that three people can keep a secret if two of them are dead.
Now tonight .. from the 23rd Psalm .. what we find here was never meant to be a secret. But by the way a lot of people live .. you would think it was a secret. I'm talking about the Secret to Security and Satisfaction.

And do you know what? Little Bobby was correct! When the Lord is your shepherd .. that's all you really need to know! For once the Lord becomes your shepherd ... it's then you have security and satisfaction.

And I hear David say, "Pastor Ernest .. here's what I mean when I say, "The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want" .. "I mean ...
(1) I Shall not Want for Rest .. for.
.. "He makes me lie down in green pastures." Because the LORD is my shepherd .. I am free from fear .. free from friction .. free from famine!
