Psalm 23: 1
The sweet singer of Israel, David, has sung many songs. All of them are beautiful and lead to praise and worship.
At 23: 1 David’s relationship is called a strong relationship with God. David said his glory, his position, his money, his wealth, his ability, and his health were nothing, and the LORD was my shepherd and all things. Only a great man who knows God deeply can say that. Here the true relationship with God is highlighted . Jehovah is my shepherd, the caretaker is everything.
In 23. 3 . The good shepherd cools the soul. When the world goes into a very hot atmosphere of kindness, when problems, crises, diseases, people are overwhelmed with sorrow, when man runs for peace, says David, Jehovah will cool my soul.
Yahweh is a shepherd who is blessed to have only one great one .
David not only cools down but also guides in the path of righteousness . The ways of righteousness in this world .In the midst of it David said that the Lord is able to open the way of righteousness that does not go astray. God who prepares the way of righteousness and the stick and the stick itself are comforting . The rod is used to guide the bottom without making a mistake.
The stick is used to repel the enemy and to tilt the leaves of the tree and give them to the sheep. Here we see the shepherd who leads the way in punishment and the shepherd who saves from the hand of the enemy.
The shepherd who prepares the feast , the shepherd who feasts and honors before the enemy . God the Shepherd who gives honor. God who does not allow his children to be ashamed .
Also the shepherd who anoints my head with oil . God who poured out the anointing of the Holy Spirit who gives victory over the enemies. How much protection is guaranteed if we receive this God as a shepherd . Surely we can submit to this protection of the Lord. Let us pray. Jehovah is my shepherd.
