EVERY BELIEVER NEEDS A SHEPHERD.
" And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion towards them, because as a sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things. ( Mark 6 vs 34)
In the above scripture, Jesus could not overlook the state of the people because He understood how dangerous and devastating a destiny could be without a shepherd.
No matter how matured a natural sheep is, the security of his destiny is remaining under a shepherd.
There is a matured sheep that can look after itself,so there is no matured believer that will not need a shepherd.
Every child of God that does not have a shepherd is a spiritual destitute because he is vulnerable and his destiny is at risk.
Many don't come close to fulfilling their destiny because they lack a God ordained shepherd over their lives.
SOME OF THE REASON WHY YOU NEED SHEPHERD:-
1- To ensure availability of pasture ( spiritual meal) for the sheep and to feed the sheep. This is the number one job of a shepherd since no one ever outgrows feeding none can out grow the need for a shepherd ( I peter 5 vs 1-2, Acts 20 vs 28)
2- For continuous protection because you are a sheep sent among the wolves( Matt 10:16)
And the security of the sheep is only guaranteed by a shepherd, the sheep cannot defend himself against the wolves.
3-- You also need a shepherd for care ( Heb 13:17, Ezekiel 34:10) The shepherd does not only feed and protect,but He also cares for the sheep
I urge you to disconnect yourself from man and every other evil source and get yourself connected to God who remain the real source of our life and blessings.
" The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want".
Psalm 23:1
God is the only sure shepherd,
When He shepherd you you will not lack anything in this life.
