In a poignant reflection on Psalm 23, Lisa Osteen has offered words of encouragement, urging individuals to face their struggles with faith. “Even though you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, you will fear no evil because Jesus, your shepherd, is close beside you,” she said, emphasizing the comfort and assurance found in God’s presence.
She reminded listeners that while life’s challenges may seem overwhelming, they are ultimately just “shadows” with no power to harm. “A shadow has no power over you. It cannot harm you,” she pointed out, bringing hope to those facing difficulties.
She also drew attention to the anointing mentioned in Psalm 23, explaining that as people go through tough times, God empowers them. “The oil represents the Holy Spirit,” she explained, adding that the Holy Spirit provides strength and comfort. “The Holy Spirit is your helper, giving you supernatural peace and rest,” she concluded, encouraging everyone to rely on God’s strength during life’s trials.
