Trust is becoming increasingly difficult to find. We question the news we read, check reviews, worry about scams and even question whether content is AI-generated. Yet Psalm 23 gives us a reason to confidently trust God because He is not distant or impersonal—He is our Shepherd. Psalm 23 was written by David, who had been a shepherd himself. His experience taught him what a good shepherd does: provides, protects, guides and cares for his sheep. Throughout Scripture, God is described as a Shepherd. Genesis 48:15/ Ezekiel 34:15-16/John 10:14-15/Hebrews 13:20 1. You can confidently trust God when you have a personal relationship with Him David begins Psalm 23 with, "The Lord is my shepherd." He didn't say the Lord is a shepherd or simply the shepherd. He said my shepherd. Our confidence comes from knowing that we belong to God, that He knows us and that He cares for us personally. David understood that sheep depend completely on their shepherd for food, water, protection and direction. Because of this relationship, he could say: "I shall not be in want." The question is: Can you say, "The Lord is MY Shepherd"? 2. You can confidently trust God to give you rest & peace Psalm 23:2-3 says: "He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul..." The Good Shepherd knows when we are empty and exhausted. Green pastures speak of provision and rest, while quiet waters speak of peace and restoration. God knows that we are not machines. We need both work and rest, and our souls need to be continually refreshed by Him. David understood that our needs are not only physical but spiritual. There comes a point when our strength runs dry, but the Good Shepherd can restore and renew our souls. 3. You can confidently trust God to guide you in the best way Psalm 23:3 continues: "He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake." To allow God to lead us means allowing Him to take charge of our lives. Like a shepherd setting the pace for his sheep, God goes before us and leads us into the right paths rather than dangerous paths of sin. Trusting God means allowing Him to lead rather than insisting on choosing our own way. 4. You can confidently trust God to help you in the darkest moments Psalm 23:4 says: "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me." Everyone faces valleys—seasons of disappointment, uncertainty, loss and pain. These may include grief, relational breakdown, emotional trauma, health challenges, family struggles, job loss, loneliness or unanswered prayers. But notice the change in the language of Psalm 23. In verses 2 and 3 David says, "He makes me," "He leads me," "He restores me." But when he enters the valley, he says, "You are with me." The Good Shepherd does not simply send us through the valley. He walks with us through it. Isaiah 41:10 David does not say that evil does not exist. He says, "I will fear no evil" because God is present. The valley may be dark, but the Shepherd is greater than the darkest valley. 5. You can confidently trust God to provide for you even when enemies attack you Psalm 23:5 says: "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over." Even when people are against us, God can provide, protect and bless us. The picture is of a king welcoming and protecting a guest, providing a place of safety and fellowship. Sharing a meal represents intimacy, belonging and connection. What is remarkable is that David describes enjoying this table in the presence of his enemies. Our peace does not depend on the absence of opposition. Even when difficult circumstances surround us, God is able to sustain and provide for us. 6. You can confidently trust God to bless you all through your life Psalm 23:6 says: "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life." God's goodness and mercy follow us through every season. His love never fails, and He is with us when we are young and when we are old. We can flourish in every season because our Shepherd remains faithful. 7. You can confidently trust God to secure your eternal future Psalm 23:6 continues: "And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." Jesus promised in John 14:2-3 that He is preparing a place for His people, and He said in John 11:25: "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me will live, even though he dies." Jesus has defeated the final enemy—death. Because He was raised from the dead, those who trust in Him can look forward to eternal life with God. Jesus said in John 10:11: "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep." At the cross, Jesus gave His life for us so that we could be forgiven and brought into relationship with God. Conclusion Psalm 23 gives us great reasons to confidently put our trust in God. He is the Shepherd who loves us, provides for us, guides us, walks with us through the valleys, protects us in the presence of opposition, blesses us throughout our lives and has prepared an eternal future for us. The invitation is to make this personal: "The Lord is MY Shepherd." Today, we can trust Christ as our Shepherd and experience His presence, acceptance, forgiveness, love and care in every season of life.

Morgan, teaching pastor at The Donelson Fellowship in Nashville and author of “The Lord is My Shepherd,” discusses the timeless message of Psalm 23, why it has comforted believers for thousands of years, and what it teaches us about trusting the Good Shepherd. https://www.robertjmorgan.com/

Schein, 1618); C: vv. 3, 4 - Isaiah 40:9-11: O Zion, You who bring good tidings, Get up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, You who bring good tidings, Lift up your voice with strength, Lift it up, be not afraid; Say to the cities of Judah, “Behold your God!” Behold, the Lord GOD shall come with a strong hand, And His arm shall rule for Him; Behold, His reward is with Him, And His work before Him. He will feed His flock like a shepherd; He will gather the lambs with His arm, And carry them in His bosom, And gently lead those who are with young. - The Lord's Prayer (p. 85) - Hymn 370 - The King of Love, My Shepherd is - Blessing - Postlude Service Participants: Rev. Shawn Stafford (Preacher), Allison Rygh (Singer), Rev. Prof. Dennis Marzolf (Pianist), Natalie Henning (Singer)
Order of Service: - Prelude - Easter Responsory: P: Alleluia! Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Alleluia! C: The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord. Alleluia! P: By the Word of the Lord C: the heavens were made. P: Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous! C: For praise from the upright is beautiful. P Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; C: And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, ever shall be forevermore. Amen. - Hymn 371 - The Lord's My Shepherd, I'll Not Want: vv. 1 - 3 - Luke 15:1-7: Then all the tax collectors and the sinners drew near to Him to hear Him. And the Pharisees and scribes complained, saying, “This Man receives sinners and eats with them.” So He spoke this parable to them, saying: “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, “Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!' I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.” - Devotion - Prayer for Tuesday Morning, p. 169 - Hymn 371 - The Lord's My Shepherd, I'll Not Want: vv. 4, 5 - Blessing - Postlude Service Participants: Chaplain Don Moldstad (Preacher), Rev.

Most people spend their lives quietly asking one question: "Will I have enough?" Psalm 23:1 answers that restless fear with stunning boldness. In this message, Pastor Paul Chapman walks verse-by-verse through the opening line of the most beloved Psalm in the Bible — "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want." This isn't the careless optimism of a man who never suffered. David wrote these words as someone who had slept in caves, run for his life, and known betrayal, danger, and lack. So how can a troubled man speak such confident words? Because the Shepherd makes the difference. In this sermon you'll learn: — Why the order of Psalm 23:1 matters (it's not "I shall not want" first — it's "The Lord is my shepherd" first) — What the word "want" actually means in the Hebrew (it's not about desires, it's about lack) — Why being called a "sheep" is humbling — and liberating — Three assurances every believer can rest in this week Three main points: My Shepherd provides what I cannot My Shepherd provides what I need My Shepherd provides for me personally If you've been feeling overlooked, emotionally exhausted, or like you're trying to carry burdens you were never designed to carry, this message is for you. The Shepherd knows you by name. He knows your voice. He knows your need before you speak it. Scripture references: Psalm 23:1 | Isaiah 53:6 | Psalm 100:3 | Psalm 84:11 | John 10:14, 27

In a world obsessed with self-discovery, many people cycle through different phases trying to figure out who they really are. The answer isn't found in fashion trends or self-help mantras, but in understanding one fundamental question: Who is your shepherd? Christianity isn't just a part of us—it IS us, as we are made in the image of God. When we truly make the Lord our shepherd, as described in Psalm 23, we surrender control and receive His complete provision, soul restoration, and guidance through life's valleys. This requires dying to ourselves daily and trusting God's leadership in every area of our lives. Our true identity is found not in worldly pursuits, but in Christ, who has carved our authentic name on a white stone that represents who we were created to be before any lies or trauma touched our lives.Prayers from sermon | The Path to Green Pastures:· The Lord Is My Shepherd…Declaration #1: The Lord is MY Shepherd. I give him all control and authority over my life. Forgive me for trying to take the lead when I should be following. Amen· I Have All That I Need – He let's me rest in green meadows; He leads me beside peaceful streams…Declaration #2: God, I thank you that your word says that you will supply all of my need according to your riches in glory. I have all that I need in Your care. Since you have been faithful to a thousand generations and because you are the same yesterday, today, and forever I can trust that you will be faithful to me and will never leave me or forsake me. Amen· He Restores My Soul/Leads in Paths of Righteousness…Declaration #3: God, I pray You restore my soul. Give me rest that only You can give. Lead me in pursuit of being more like You. I want more of You in my life.· Though I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Death I will fear no evil. Your rod and staff comfort me…Declaration #4: God, I know I am your child. I need You in my valley moments. I know these times will shape me. I know this is not meaningless. I trust You, even when I don't understand it. I know that I can't be separated from Your love. Amen· You Anoint My Head with Oil, My Cup Overflows, Surely Goodness & Mercy Shall Follow Me, I Shall Dwell in the House of the Lord Forever…Declaration #5: Dear Jesus. Forgive me of my sins. Come into my life and help me follow You. I believe that you died, and you were raised from the dead. I surrender myself to you. Lead me now, and into eternity. Amen.

Okay, Bonnetheads, buckle up— Part 2, of "The Lord is My Shepherd" zeroes in on Laura Ingalls, who is drowning in guilt after the death of her baby brother. Convinced she's somehow responsible, Laura does what any emotionally overwhelmed Prairie kid might do: she runs away into the mountains to have a serious talk with God. (Thanks, Rev. Alden!)Out there, she meets Jonathan, a mysterious mountain man with strong “possibly an angel, or possibly just a hermit who is just wiser than everyone else” energy, played by the one and only, Ernest Borgnine. Jonathan listens, gently challenges Laura's guilt, and offers calm guidance instead of miracles. He also gives her a hand-carved wooden cross—simple, meaningful, and far more helpful than yelling at the sky.Meanwhile, the Ingalls family launches a full-scale prairie panic, as Edwards and Pa begin searching desperately for Laura. Pa is giving emotional breakdown while being the most gorgeous man that has ever lived (both emotionally and physically!). Spoiler: the cross Jonathan makes Laura comes in clutch and leads them straight to her. Is this a master grand plan after all from an Angel sent by God? Or just a dude on a mountain who got lucky?By the end, the viewer has had at least 5 major emotional breaks as this incredible episode comes to a conclusion. But do we ever truly know who or what Jonathan was?

David, a man after God’s own heart, gives two powerful examples of God’s Character in the names Jehovah Tsaba and Jehovah Rohi, showcasing how these names of God reflect divine strength and care. In the story of David and Goliath, David calls upon Jehovah Tsaba, "The Lord of Hosts," confidently trusting that the battle belongs to God, who commands heavenly armies and brings victory in overwhelming circumstances. Later, as the author of Psalm 23, David describes his personal experience with Jehovah Rohi, "The Lord is My Shepherd," portraying God as a loving guide who provides, protects, and restores. David’s life illustrates how God is both a mighty warrior who fights for His people and a compassionate shepherd who walks closely with them through every challenge.

In this episode, we explore what it truly means to be led by the Good Shepherd—the One who guides, corrects, and provides for His own. Drawing from Psalm 23:1, we're reminded that divine guidance isn't just a concept—it's a lifestyle and inheritance for every believer.Here's what you'll uncover:
When we make Jesus Lord of our lives, too often we don't fully understand what that means. We sometimes take it to mean that God will not let anything really bad happen to us. Then when our child dies, it can be hard to trust Him or to see Jesus as the "good" shepherd. In […] The post 297: The Lord is My Shepherd appeared first on GPS Hope.

But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? · Jehovah Rohi – The Lord is My Shepherd; Psalm 23 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff,they comfort me.

Can you think of a time you felt particularly close to God? For me, I often experience Him in nature. There's a mountain in North Carolina my family has spent a significant amount of time on. From it, you can look down on clouds and the Blue Ridge mountains and it never fails to bring me into a deeper awareness of God's presence with me.2. It can look a lot of ways, but as you think of your “God moment,” would you pray a prayer of appreciation (out-loud) of who the Lord is for you and your appreciation of His character. Perhaps one of the names of God has held special significance for you this season – thank Him for that.3. Now, knowing that He is Immanuel, notice where He is with you at this moment. The Holy Spirit reveals Jesus to us, and so ask the Spirit for an awareness of God's presence with you.4. Ask Jesus directly what He wants you to know, or what His good plans for healing are for you today.For more information about this Advent season, visit our Christmas at Fellowship page.

Welcome to The Restore Project—a series centered around Psalm 23. Here is Session 9. (Feel free to listen in any order.) Psalm 23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever. This is the last episode of The Restore Project. I will go over some themes we've looked at in this series, kind of like when you skip a rock and it leaves rings where it's been. Just a skim over. Maybe you'll hear something you want to revisit, or missed altogether. (Fun fact, I love skipping rocks.) I will end with the song, "The Lord is My Shepherd," which is Psalm 23 in its entirety and is the third song I've written inspired by this Psalm. Well, I only wrote the music, David wrote the words.
