Acts 2:42-47:Those who were saved after Peter had preached to them continued to follow the teaching of the Apostles, the breaking of the bread & in prayers. Signs and wonders followed them as they had all sold what they owned and shared with the those among them so that none had need. They were in one accord with each other and God.They were happy in the Lord as they did so. God added many people to their fellowship daily.
Ps. 23: This Psalm speaks of how God is the good shepherd & what he does for his sheep.
1 Peter 2:19-25:As Christ's sheep follow him & be willing to suffer for Jesus sake for he suffered for your sake. Why? Because you were once wandering sheep but now you are not.
John 10:1-10:Jesus shares with this followers that he is the good shepherd and the door. Who loves, cares for and even die for his sheep.
These verses speak of the Good Shepherd who is Jesus. How he takes care of his sheep & how we as sheep should act.
Challenge of the week:
This week, think about your Good Shepherd Jesus. Think of what he did & continues to do for you. May sure you sing praises to him for that. Also think about how Jesus want you as his sheep to act. Do you need to change some things to correctly follow his example of love? Have you made Jesus your Good Shepherd yet, by telling him of your sins, ask him to for give them, cover them with his blood, save you from them? If do so this week.
Accomplishment of the week:
Did you think on Jesus being your Good Shepherd? If you had not made Jesus your shepherd before you read this devotional? If not, did you do that this week? If you are already saved, did you do anything to change how you live your life to line it up better with how Jesus would have had you live? How was that done? How did that go?
