READ: Ezekiel 34:12-16

  1. As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
  2. And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
  3. I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.
  4. I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord GOD.
  5. I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Corinthians 2:1-17, Proverbs 17-18

MESSAGE:

The Psalmist in our memory verse for today boldly testified that God is good. One would think he said that because he had it all rosy and smooth. On the contrary, Davids life was not smooth. He was the last born of his father and a shepherd boy who tended the flock until he was anointed king. After Samuel anointed him king, it took many years of struggle before he could sit on the throne. He ran from Saul who was after his life, slept in caves, begged for food et cetera. Despite all he went through, he could still say, “The LORD is good;”

Our God is good! You had better believe this because what you believe is what will work for you. Many people, when going through difficult times, think God is partial or wicked. It does not matter what anyone thinks, God is good. My life is a testament to the fact that God is good. No matter what I face in my walk with God, I will always testify that God is good.

KEY POINT:

Spend some time today to extol the good God.

HYMN: Standing On The Promises Of God

  1. Standing on the promises
    of Christ, our King,
    Thro’ eternal ages let
    His praises ring;
    Glory in the highest,
    I will shout and sing,
    Standing on the promises of God.

CHORUS
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises of God, my Saviour;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.

  1. Standing on the promises
    that cannot fail.
    When the howling storms of
    doubt and fear assail,
    By the living word of God
    I shall prevail,
    Standing on the promises of God.
  2. Standing on the promises
    I now can see
    Perfect, present cleansing
    in the blood for me;
    Standing in the liberty
    where Christ makes free,
    Standing on the promises of God.
  3. Standing on the promises
    of Christ, the Lord,
    Bound to Him eternally
    by love’s strong cord,
    Overcoming daily with
    the Spirit’s sword,
    Standing on the promises of God.
