In this week's episode, she finishes out the verse which says, "...I shall not want." Listen in as Laura talks about how that may mean something different than […] The post 298: Psalm 23:1 Through the Eyes of Child Loss appeared first on GPS Hope.

Patton Kennedy & Jack Sims - May 18, 2025 Scripture References: Psalm 23 From Series: "Other Sermons"
By Obey Parker - This message is loosely based on the book "A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23" by W. Phillip Keller, and includes the speaker's own personal experiences in raising sheep. Psalm 23 tells us to view our Lord as a shepherd. There are aspects of how a shepherd deals with his flock that indicate how God cares
In this sermon, guest speaker Greg Chandler challenges us to allow the goodness of God captivate and lead us as he does an in depth examination on verse 6 of Psalm 23.
God takes us to a place of overflow where we can hear Him speak clearly about our purpose and promise beyond our struggles and daily needs. • The Lord is our shepherd who guides us to a place of not wanting or lacking anything essential• Sometimes God forces us to lie down and rest before we can properly receive from Him• Abraham heard about his greater purpose from a place of abundance, not deficit• The valley of the shadow of death is just that - a shadow we pass through, not death itself• God uses His rod to protect us from attacks and His staff to rescue us when we're stuck• Many can't experience overflow because their spiritual cups have holes from past hurts• The table God prepares for us after our trials is where He anoints and fills us to overflowing• Breaking barriers requires operating from overflow, not constantly from a place of lack• God often speaks about our purpose only after we've moved beyond survival-mode prayers• Rest is essential for spiritual nourishment - you can't eat when you're filled with anxietyIf you've been struggling to break through barriers in your life, ask God to fix the holes in your cup so you can retain what He's pouring into you. Your breakthrough comes from the overflow. Welcome To Chosen City Church! We are excited to you have worship with us today and we pray that this sermon blesses you!Partner With Chosen City Church:https://www.chosencitychurch.com/part...Support Chosen City Church:https://www.chosencitychurch.com/givePodcasts and More:https://linktr.ee/chosencitychurchConnect With Chosen City ChurchWebsite: https://chosencitychurch.com.comInstagram: @ChosenCityChurchYouTube: Chosen City ChurchFacebook: Chosen City ChurchIntro and outro created by Joe Anderson Jr. of Truflava Productions
The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on John 10 (in which Jesus describes himself as a shepherd of sheep) and Psalm 23 (in which sheep rejoice that, in the Lord, they have a Good Shepherd). To be a sheep in Jesus' fold means to be cared for, defended, and brought home safely.
Josh teaches from Psalm 23 about the subversive claim that God is like a shepherd.
Who or what are you pursuing in order to find contentment? Are you being led by the Good Shepherd, or are there other things in your life leading you? In this message, we learn to look to God as our Good Shepherd—our protector and provider in every season of life.

Jesus, our Good Shepherd, embodies unconditional love and care, meeting our every need, guiding us through life's trials, and restoring our souls with complete forgiveness. He loves us, His sheep, so much that He laid down His life so that we would be safe eternally. Parents are called to mirror this love by nurturing their children with care, guidance, and a commitment to their faith. May our Good Shepherd's boundless love give us comfort and encouragement every single day.Pastor Schroeder's sermon preached at Faith on May 11, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

Sermon: Casey McCormick; Music: "Psalm 23," Poor Bishop Hooper; Communion: Ellie Koranek
By Steven C Parker - In this sermon Steve Parker looks at Psalm 23. Since we are described as sheep by both David and Christ, he goes through this Psalm in detail showing how each verse relates to us as God's sheep.
On this Faith Friday edition of Morning Manna, Rick and Doc lead a powerful study of Psalm 23, revealing a message of faith, trust, and rest in the care of the Good Shepherd. They unpack the deeper meanings of “I shall not want,” challenging listeners to replace words of lack with words of faith and desire. Through vivid teaching on green pastures, still waters, and restored souls, the hosts emphasize God's joy in blessing His children. The discussion is a heartfelt reminder that God lovingly compels us to rest in His abundance, not strive in fear. The episode closes with Holy Communion and a call to receive God's love freely and joyfully.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

This week we have Pastor Pammy leading a devotional around Psalm 23. rootedpastors.org
Few passages are more beloved than Psalm 23 and today we'll look over familiar territory and remember what it means that "the Lord is our Shepherd." DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Look in your Bible, just below the title “Psalm 23”. Who does it say wrote this psalm? According to the podcast, how was this author a shepherd of both sheep and people? How might this personal resume have helped him understand more richly that the Lord is his shepherd? 2. Look up John 10:14, 1 Peter 5:4 and Hebrews 13:20. What do these verses tell us about Jesus as our shepherd? If Jesus is our shepherd, how should we look to Him and respond to Him? 3. How does the Holman Christian Standard Version render the phrase “I shall now want” in verse 1? How does this help us understand what David means by this phrase? In what ways have you seen the Lord provide for your “wants”? 4. In verse 2, why does the Lord lead His people to green pastures and quiet waters? 5. In verse 3, what does “restore” mean? How does the Lord restore His people? Where has He restored you? 6. What are the “paths of righteousness” in verse 3? According to this verse, why does the Lord guide us down these paths? 7. Will the Lord ever lead you down an unrighteous path? As you consider your own life, are there any “paths” that you need to forsake because they are not righteous? 8. What did the podcast say David means in verse 4, that the Lord walks with him through valleys of the shadow of death? Where have you gone through such a valley? When we go through those kinds of difficult times, how does the fact that God is with us, help us? 9. In verses 5 &6, where is this banquet being held? What is the relationship vibe that you see in these verses? 10. What does verse 6 mean by saying that “only” goodness and mercy will follow us? How does the Lord provide us with this mercy and goodness? 11. All in all, this verse shows the tremendous joy and peace that comes from pure fellowship with the Lord.

The World Has Been a MessBriefly Explain The Fall of Man in Genesis 3 and free will.Evil is real: Richard Foster says, “God becomes a reality when he becomes a necessity.” Dark valleys make God more real to us. The world is not how it was designed to be.“No man knows how bad he is till he has tried very hard to be good.” C.S. LewisWe all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Isaiah 53:6This is why human history is littered with violence, deceit, adultery, lies, greed, grabs at powerThis is why our family tree has that in itThis is why you and I have that in usThe Bible says in Romans 3:10-11“There is no one righteous, not even one; 11 there is no one who understands there is no one who seeks God.We all follow something or someone… Yourself? Sheep gone astray. The Lord Is MY ShepherdThe Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,he leads me beside quiet waters,3 he refreshes my soul.He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, Psalm 23:1-4All of us will walk through valleys in our lives: What gets us through them is the Good Shepherd.You can go at it alone… or with your friends, or family… But at some point,the valley of the shadow of Death will consume you. You will win…When you have Jesus as your shepherd… You know he will lead you to green pastures.He will lead you to still waters, he will restore your soulMOST PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH WHO THEY ARE RATHER THAN WHOSE THEY ARE… This is the most important decisionA Stable Life is Built on a Stable Foundation“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.” Matthew 7:24-27
We are joined by musical artist Leanna Crawford to dig into scripture as her latest song is called "Psalm 23" because of the peace it brings. It's the foundation for us as we get into comparison and how social media is a fine line of driving us to become well rounded people and exhausting/killing us at the same time.

Chapter 01 of Heroes in the Bible: David with Dr. Tony Evans is inspired by 1 Samuel 8-10. A Rejected God - The rebellious children of Israel continue to thrive under the gracious protection of their God. However, their hearts crave slavery, and they desire a king to rule over them instead of the Lord who has saved them. God gives them what they ask for, but is it what they need? Today's opening prayer is inspired by Psalm 23:4-5, 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. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.
