The Pain of Being Lost
What does it mean when something is lost?
It is out of its proper place.
It is not where it is supposed to be.
A lost thing cannot be used, it cannot fulfil its purpose.
We were lost.
We were out of our proper place - Our place is to be in fellowship with God.
We were useless - though made in his image we were unable to worship him.
We had been scattered upon the earth, with no one to love or care for us.
The World seeks just to use us, the flesh seeks just to subdue us and the Devil seeks just to destroy us.
But God seeks to heal us and restore us.
We were alone and without purpose or reason.
Life was without any hope.
Jesus Came to find the Lost
In one os his most powerful parables Jesus Speaks of himself as a loving shepherd who would leave the 99 in search for the 1 missing sheep.
As a local shepherd, i am constantly touched and blessed by the fact that my Jesus is the Good Shepherd.
We Are His Sheep and He is our Shepherd
There is just something wonderful and indescribable about the blessing of being in the care of the good shepherd.
His grace and peace and goodness are seem to flow together in streams of blessing.
My past pointless and purposeless life now has meaning.
I was Lost, but now I am found, and having been found I have found my place in Jesus.
ps 23
What does it mean that Jesus is your shepherd?
How does that fact change the way we face each day? it should change it in a powerful way.
It should because the good shepherd loves you dearly hd his love is not empty words or promises, it is actual sacrificial love.
again:
Lays down His life…
I love that he leads me to green pastures and beside still waters.
My shepherd provides.
He provides all the needs of His sheep.
Let me tell you something about our shepherd.
Like David killed the Lion and Bear, our Shepherd has defeated the Devil and the World.
Jesus has overcome the word and he has
Our Shepherd is the Captan of heavens armies.
The Shepherd is might and fierce in the protection of his sheep, but when it comes to his sheep, he is tender and kindhearted.
Jesus is the Guardian of the Flock
What does this mean?
I am referring to the ability our Shepherd had to keep his sheep.
Our shepherd is a faithful shepherd.
He sets his sheep upon the rock, he establishes them, their ministries, their families.
And the Shepherd keeps his sheep from following after evil.
He keeps us in his power.
That word “keep” is the greek Phylasso - it means to watch, to guard and to observe.
It speaks of constant and vigilant overwatch.
It is not great to know that the Good Shepherd is watching over you today?
That the good shepherd is guarding you and keeping you?
