Well, the answer is in your daily living and abiding in Him. It is

Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He maketh me to
lie down in green pastures:
he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness
for his name`s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow
of
death,
I will fear no evil:
for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow me all the days
of my life:
and I will dwell
in the house of the LORD for ever.

keepeth thee will not slumber.

slumber nor sleep.

thy right hand.
