Psalm 23

Psalm 23 is far more than a familiar comfort—it is a rich declaration of who God is and what it means to belong to Him. In this sermon, we will explore Psalm 23 as a portrait of the Good Shepherd, seeing how David points us to the Lord’s identity, His care, His protection, and His gracious invitation. Drawing from the shepherd imagery deeply rooted in Scripture, we’ll see how this psalm reveals a personal, covenant relationship with God—one ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for the sheep.

Together, we’ll consider what it truly means to say, “The Lord is my Shepherd”—to trust Him for our daily needs, rest in His provision, walk with Him through life’s valleys, and accept His loving correction and protection. We’ll also see how the Shepherd prepares a table for His people, inviting us into peace, fellowship, and eternal hope. Whether you are walking through a season of rest or a season of struggle, this psalm reminds us that those who belong to the Shepherd are never abandoned—and that goodness and mercy will follow us all the days of our lives.
