God Has Authority Over Me. Psalms 23:2-3

Contributed by T. W Jenkins on Mar 12, 2012

Reading the twenty-third psalm can be misleading if we only open our ears to verse one. "The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want". However, we must understand that the Lord, as our Shepherd, requires complete authority over the sheep. He must be in total

1. I need His presence (He makes me to lie down in green pasture) This can only happen when I am in His presence. He's an interesting point about sheep being made to lie down. Sheep are very skittish animals. They are very Nervous and have to reach a high level of comfort ...read more

One must be on guard in the Christian life. The slide downwards begins with listening or taking note, then standing to observe more, and then sitting in the place of that sin. The message examines the first five verses of Psalm 26. A heart before God is what we must have.

Or, a prayer for when God doesn't answer, the first time you pray.

Creation, And God's Word (Psalm 19:1-14) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jul 12, 2022

It's common to play off the two parts to the psalm. But they are both useful, and inspired. And creation and the Bible complement each other, in how they reveal God.
