2025 Summer Bible Seminar
Theme :
The Lord is My Shepherd
The LORD is my shepherd,
I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake (Ps 23:1-3).
As people transition from childhood to adulthood, they develop mental independence, distancing themselves from the care and protection of their parents. This is a positive development we refer to as growth. However, Satan exploits this independence to tempt us into relying on our own strength and wisdom, living for ourselves instead of trusting in the good God, just as he did to Eve. Consequently, we no longer believe in the existence of the true shepherd and wander in darkness like lost sheep. Then, one day, you heard the voice of this shepherd and returned to him.
For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls (1 Pet 2:25).
Since this shepherd isn’t visibly present with you, even if you are one of his sheep, it’s possible that you still live in fear, filled with worries and anxieties, as if you were still lost.
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 (Ps 23:4).
This psalm contains many wonderful promises for you who have the Lord as your shepherd. This shepherd, who laid down his life for you, does not slumber night or day; he watches over you and seeks to guide you.
