April 15, 2023 ~ Linda K. Milam April Devotions: "The Good Shepherd"

 And so, I continue. . . That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving and tell of all thy wondrous works. Psalms 26:7

Ezekiel 34:22-24 ~ 22 Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. 23 And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. 24 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken it.  KJV  

God continues to address the "Shepherds" of His people, making sure that they know that HE is the Father of this flock. Notice the word MY in the first phrase of verse 22. We are HIS children/flock. and His children have the devine protection of their Father. God truly is the only one that can save us, keep us, guard us, and protect us. He is the one that gave us that ONE SHEPHERD that will never leave us nor forsake us! Hebrews 13:5 " . . . for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee."

He is the one that will provide our every need and be our Lord and Saviour for eternity. Here God is telling them of David, but for us that One is Jesus Christ His Son.  Do you know Him as your Saviour? Do you have confidence that He is the One that is our Shepherd of shepherds? God wants to care for His children, but do we as His children give Him the thanks and glory for caring us? Are we grateful every day for the moment we open our eyes in the morning and until we close them at night that He is the one that raises us up? Can you define a time in your life when you accepted Jesus Christ as your Saviour? Where are you today then, Christian? Are you serving, loving, worshipping Him as you should?  

If not, turn back to Him today. Please don't reject Him any longer, for when you refuse to make that turn in your life placing you back into His fold, you only set yourself up for self-destruction and denying of the power of God. He loves us, please love Him back!

HE CARES! Lost person, Do You Want to Know HIM?  Lord, help us to be wise, studied up, aware, and faithful to You. Amen.  With love and prayers, may we be your faithful Philippians 2:16 Missionaries?

Philippians 2:16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
