The TRIUMPHANT And GLORIOUS CHURCH: Jesus Christ – The Complete Shepherd – You Can Count And Account On Him – 24/7.
It’s awesome, gracious and graceful to know that the CHIEF, GREAT, GOOD and PERSONAL SHEPHERD of the TRIUMPHANT and GLORIOUS Church is Jesus Christ – who is our Saviour King and Lord of All.
The Holy Scriptures enjoined that He is to us – THE CHURCH – as individual and collective body:
*** The CHIEF Shepherd – 1 Peter 5:4.
“And when the CHIEF SHEPHERD shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away”
*** The GREAT Shepherd – Hebrews 13:20-21.
“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that GREAT SHEPHERD of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen”
*** The GOOD Shepherd – John 10:11, 14.
“I am the GOOD SHEPHERD: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep . . .14 I am the GOOD SHEPHERD, and know my sheep, and am known of mine”
*** My PERSONAL Shepherd – Psalms 23
“The Lord is MY SHEPHERD; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever” Psalms 23:1-6.
When you can comprehend this, there is no need to worry, live in fear and despondent because He’s ever faithful to who and what He is as our Chief, Great and Good Shepherd.
I pray that the BLESSEDNESS of having the CHIEF, GREAT, GOOD AND PERSONAL SHEPHERD over you, should keep your heads up, shoulder high and heels high; more so, the mandate to triumph over all your infirmities, limitations and CIRCUMSTANCES in your day to day in LIFE and GODLINESS.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
