Ecclesiastes 6:9 - It is better to focus on what you can see than to meander after your self-interest; this also is pointless and a chasing after wind.
May 8, 2020 · It is possible to take a gentle meander through the passage. We can start by seeing in verse 13 that God spoke to Joseph in a dream and stop to talk about how God talks to us. Joseph then obeyed God and took the child to Egypt, this shows the importance of being quick to obey God’s Word (v14).

1. 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. 4.

Only a shepherd could write Psalm 23, and David was a shepherd. The Lord is the Shepherd of His people and they are His sheep; so David said, “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” In eastern lands, the shepherd goes before his flock—he leads them. They know his voice and follow him. So the sheep in this beautiful Psalm, the flock of the Lord...
The Psalmist puts rest and refreshment first because this is the way God deals with us so often. His blessings span the years. When we look back over life, the trials are out-weighed by His love. “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning” (Psalm 30:5).

The heavenly shepherd does not always keep His shee...
In the last two verses of the 23rd Psalm we read: “Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever” (Psalm 23:5-6). Remember, the sheep are men—are people. They...
Now notice the next sentence in the text, “My cup runneth over.” God's blessing here and hereafter is more than we can receive. “Goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.” As the ancient shepherd led his sheep, his two shepherd dogs guarded the rear to keep straying sheep in the path of the shepherd and draw attention to the wound...

Nov 11, 2022 · The Bible says a lot about slander, in both Old Testament and New (Proverbs 10:18; 1 Peter 2:1). Slander is so high on God’s list of wrongs that He included it in the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:16).
