I'm confident because The Lord is my Shepherd.
Ministering: The President Lwm And Chancellor Rhema University, Bro Emma Okorie On The Topic: "The Lord Is My Shepherd"
Highlights:
This is a Psalm of David who was a shepherd. He understood the special relationship and care a shepherd has with the sheep.
So he calls the Lord his shepherd as a beautiful illustration of his own personal relationship with God. Ps 23(NIV)
This relationship is deep because of the enormous quality of a shepherd.
A shepherd is trustworthy . Ps. 23:4
He led and cared for them through the wilderness.
Ps 105:10-45(NLT)
The presence of the shepherd is a booster of divine assurance that God is with us.
The duty of shepherd was to keep their flock intact, protect them from their enemies. John 10:11-18(NLT)
A shepherd takes the bullet. He laid down his life for his sheep.
This gives us assurance and confidence in our fasting and prayer
1 John 3:16(KJV)
A shepherd provides and protect his flock - Ps 78:52-55(TLB)
A Visionary shepherd - Isa 40:11(KJV) He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young.
I want us to get into prayer with this understanding that Jesus is our shepherd.
Most times we are looking for deeper revelation which will inspire us into God’s presence, but the deeper revelation of God is found in the simple word of God we read everyday. –“The Lord is my Shepherd”
God sees it as a responsibility to take care of us. He is not complaining - Ezek 34:11-16(NLT
