“The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Psalm 23:1 (KJV)
A shepherd is a person who tends and rears sheep. A shepherd is also someone who guides or directs in a particular direction. Making the Lord your shepherd puts an end to all lack. He is the great provider. If He could turn five loaves of bread and two fishes into abundance to feed five thousand men, not counting children and women, then He can truly take good care of you as recorded in Matthew 14:19–21.
We make Him our shepherd when we believe in Him and make Him our Lord and personal Savior. He guides and directs us through the Holy Spirit. Remember that He is the way, the truth, and the life, so you are guaranteed a wonderful destination if you follow Him (John 14:6).
You can hear His voice if the Word of God dwells in you richly, and it becomes easy to follow Him and enjoy the best of Him.
Dear beloved, make the Lord Jesus Christ your shepherd, and be intimate with Him through the fellowship of His Word and His Spirit. Then enjoy all the good pleasure of His will till eternity.
Prayer Point: My dear heavenly Father, thank you for your Word. I make Jesus Christ my shepherd today and make up my mind to become intimate with Him in order to enjoy the best of Him. Please let me never forget to fellowship with Him every day. Amen!
