Summary

Psalm 23 is an account of everything God has already done for David in the past, as well as everything David is confident God will do for him in the future. But the chief end of all God's past provisions and future promises is found in the final phrase of verse 3: “...He leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.” All that God does is for “his name's sake.” In other words, all that God does is for his glory. And one if the chief ways God has chosen to bring glory to himself is by being good to his people.

0:00.0	Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request. If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
0:06.4	would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review? This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
0:12.8	to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible. Thanks.
0:18.1	Psalm chapter 23, perhaps one of the most well-known text in all of the
0:23.0	scripture. Would you join me in standing for the reading of God's word today? I'll read the text
0:27.6	in its entirety. When I finish reading the text, I'll say this is the word of the Lord,
0:31.7	at which point I would appreciate very much if you respond by saying thanks be to God.
0:36.4	One more time, our text for today is Psalm
0:38.7	chapter 23 which says this, the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green
0:46.7	pastures. He leads me besides still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his namesake.
0:55.9	Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
1:01.9	Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
1:04.8	You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
1:08.4	You anoint my head with oil.
1:10.6	My cup overflows. Surely, goodness and
1:13.9	mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
1:20.5	This is the word of the Lord. All right. Please be seated and join me as I pray once more.
1:26.8	Father, we thank you for your word.
1:28.3	We pray that you would bless it to your people today.
1:30.9	We pray, Lord, that you would give us spiritual eyes to see,
1:34.4	spiritual ears to hear, new hearts that are softened,
1:37.7	and malleable, and receptive to your word.
