Psalm 23:1-3  A Psalm of David. 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.  The Shepherd Psalm written by King David under the guiding hand of the Spirit of God, brings comfort and hope to our souls. The first half of this Psalm reminds believers in Christ that Jesus is Jehovah, and He is our Great Shepherd. Philippians 4:19  But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.  All of our needs including physical, mental and spiritual ones, are supplied by Christ. Philippians 4:13  I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.  Because our Father supplies our needs through His Son, we can do all things that He calls us to do concerning His Great Commission work. We are called to walk a worthy walk with our LORD each day....

Psalm 23:1-3  A Psalm of David. 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.  The Shepherd Psalm has been a source of comfort and hope to generations of believers from the time of King David until the present day. In David's Psalm, Jehovah is the Shepherd who cares for His sheep. The sheep are all who repent of sins and trust God's provision of salvation by faith in Christ. The LORD wants to guide our steps through this life. He wants to direct our ways, feed us with His good Word and to give us the pure water of His Word (See Isaiah 55). Only our LORD knows what is best for me and for you and this is why He leads us to pure, still waters and brings us to feed on His Word, that heavenly manna. Ezekiel 34:2-6  Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say...

Ezekiel 34:4-6  The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.  5  And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.  6  My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them.  We saw that through the prophet Ezekiel, God condemned the unfaithful shepherds who enriched themselves at the expense of His people. He condemned both the civil and spiritual leaders of Israel for this error. We spent time looking at what it means to feed the sheep of God's pasture. We learned how this refers to faithful pastors, teacher, evangelists an...

  Below are links to the YouTube channel of Heritage Baptist Church in Smithville, Ohio. These will link you to Pastor Alvis' sermons from the month of September this year. Please note I posted his 4 sermons on the LORD's day separately on the blog because I felt this was a very important message for all Christians. Most of these are livestream and a few are audio only. I pray that Pastor's sermons are a rich blessing to each of you who are able to view or listen. I praise God for the ways that He can send His Word out into a lost and dying world.
