Thank God for Being My Shepherd
Backgrounder on Psalms 19-24:
The Lord can be seen in many
different roles in these six psalms.
He is the Creator (P19), Helper
(P20), King (P21), Crucified One
(P22), Shepherd (P23) & Glorious
One (P24). For each role, there
is a corresponding responsibility
for the people who would follow
Him as their God, King & Shepherd.
Lord, U Provide, Guide & Protect:
The Lord is My Shepherd, I Lack
Nothing & have everything I need.
He Leads me besides peaceful
streams. He Guides me along right
paths… Even when I walk thro the
darkest valley, I will not be afraid
for You are close beside me.
Your rod and staff Protect and
comfort me (Ps 23:1-4). Amen.
Lord, the Shepherd of my soul,
praise & thank you for Your Care.
You are not just my Creator and
my God. You are not just the King
and the Judge of the universe. For
You are my Shepherd. I am blessed
for because of You, I Lack Nothing.
Keep me from complaining; and
Keep me from fear and worry; for
U will Provide all my needs. Amen.
Lord Shepherd, it is comforting
to know that I am not alone in
the journey of life. Thank you
that you are ever so vigilant,
Guiding and watching over me.
And thank You that You love to
lead me to “Peaceful streams”.
So, help me to always respond to
Your sweet small voice and stay
close to You. And I gladly Follow
You as You call my name. Amen.
Lord Shepherd, you faithfully
feed, guide and above all Protect
your flock with your life. You are
always close by and your rod
protects & comfort me. And You
protectively hold me in Yr hand.
When I am afraid or worried,
remind me that You desire to
always Protect and comfort me.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
