The Song Of The Sheep


The Lord Jesus Christ is my Shepherd 
Because He feeds, guides and shields me.
 I belong to His pen,
those are the only ones He feeds, guide and shields.
Before He can become your Shepherd, you must belong to His sheep pen!
To belong to this pen, you must belong to His family:
having His divine seed inside of you.
I am not a bastard but a son, belonging to the commonwealth of God.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
Not willingly
But when I respond I realize that I had been truly weary and need the rest.
My Shepherd makes and creates situations 
Where He makes me lie down in safety,
Leading me beside still calm and restful waters.
He refreshes and restores me.
I didn’t know but now I know that a refreshing or a restoring occurs 
When I return after wandering away.
He refreshes and restores me.
He is truly the God of second chances!
He leads I follow in the paths of righteousness for His name sake.
It means it is not the things I say or do that makes me righteous.
How wonderful!
But when I allow Him to lead me and I follow completely,
 He imputes righteousness in me.
Therefore,
I am confident 
That if I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I cannot be afraid because He is with me.
He is real, death is only a shadow.
I do not fear death because I know who my Redeemer is,
And He LIVES!
His rod and staff are always with me to comfort and correct me 
Whenever the need arises.
My Shepherd prepares a table before me 
Even when I am surrounded by my enemies 
To prove to them that He loves me.
My head He anoints daily with His word so I would not fail to have His word 
At the right time when the need arises.
My cup and my lot He blesses.
Indeed His goodness and faithfulness will continually pursue me.
I am determined like the three Hebrew boys to live and remain in His pen
All the days of my life.
He is my shepherd, is He yours too?
There is no Shepherd in all the universe like Him, 
That lays His life for the sheep. 
Will you not make Him yours today, not just in words, but in action and truth?!

You Are What Matters Most To Jesus Christ

 "When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; Walk [habitually] before Me [with integrity, knowing that you are always in My presence], and be blameless and complete [in obedience to Me]" (Genesis 17:1, AMP).        A while back, I overheard a conversation between two young men; both were wondering how a person can be and remain holy in a world that daily encourages you to exhibit and enjoy every self-indulgent pleasure one desires. Of course, they knew the Scripture in Psalm 119:9-11, which describes how a young man can keep his way pure, but they feel it is increasingly becoming difficult to discern the way of the Lord from the world system. To them, many Pastors and children of God have been won over by the kingdom of darkness to subvert the principles of God as written in the Bible.           They were not wrong, in light of some of the teaching coming from the pulpits! The above ...

Finding True Love

         From the beginning of time, God Almighty has sought various means of communicating His thoughts and desires to humanity. Through the very things He has created around us, He clearly reveals His divine nature and our predestined purposes as the object of His love to those who care enough to pay attention.  His goal has always been to set men free from all that limits them from experiencing an abundant life. There is no doubt that the present life as we know it, with all its hurts, pains and heartbreak was never meant to be this way; indeed the enemy has done this.         Friends, if He created the earth with hidden and precious treasures, then how much more you? The enemy, on the other hand, has worked overtime to create things that bind, blind, limit, and ultimately stop us from fulfilling our God-given destinies. His most successful strategies are those which are subtle and appeal to our fleshly desires, just as...

The Perverted Love Of St Valentine's Day

         We live in a world where those who suppress the truth have the loudest voices. They are more persuasive in their arguments because their arguments sound logical and well-reasoned. However, the fact that an argument is loud and logical does not necessarily mean it is the truth. At the same time, the fact that an argument is loud and logical does not mean it is of God. So many claim they do not care where it originates from, but they agree with and have bought into its message. If that is your stance, then you need to hear this because what you believe and have bought into is a lie. Remember, ignorance is not bliss but a dangerous position to occupy as many ‘ignorants’ abound in hell!        The argument for celebrating St. Valentine's Day is loud and sounds logical but it is not the truth, nor is it of God! It is not of God because the love that Jesus Christ portrays carries within it the responsibility of self-sacrifice whilst that o...
