Am I just another sheep to God or something more?

Hearing the Shepherd, 3 of 4 from January 25, 2025

“When Jesus is our Shepherd He is bold with His generous grace.”

Psalm 23:5 by Michael Lockstampfor (@miklocks)

SUMMARY

This sermon continues our series on Psalm 23, focusing on verse 5. Pastor Michael explained that this verse represents a shift from the shepherd-sheep imagery to a host welcoming an honored guest into his tent, demonstrating that God sees us as more than just sheep—we are valued guests at His table. Even though enemies surround us, we can feast confidently because Jesus has defeated death and disarmed all spiritual powers, showing His bold and generous grace toward those who follow Him.
