Today's Verse: Psalm 34:10 (NIV) - The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
This verse states that, unlike the rest of creation, men have the option of seeking the Lord any time, and He will give us those things that he knows that we need.
Today's Comments: Notice, the verse says that those who seek the lord will lack no good thing. The important word here is not "thing" but "good." Kenneth Copeland and his prosperity gospellers would have us think that we should never suffer but that the riches will pour out upon us, as long as we seek the Lord in the "right" way or mode. Contrary to the claims of Brother Copeland, our reward, is not riches on Earth; it is eternity with God in Heaven. Therefore, God gives us what we need so that we will achieve our eternal reward.
