Sorry for the error early this morning; I was still asleep!  Please delete

Hello Everyone!  Praise the Lord!  Please be encouraged and join Truth
Revealed International Ministries by taking part in praying the “I pray
Psalms 23 Campaign” for the month of May.  This Psalm is being prayed around
the world and the times to pray are as follows:

 

First prayer:  6 am, then again at 11 am, then again at 6 pm and again at 11
pm.  You do not have to pray all four (unless you choose to) , just do the
best you can by praying the Psalm out loud.  Please be sure to “pray” it,
not “read” it.    The Lord IS our Shehpard and we shall not want!  So let us
unite together and “PUSH” (Pray Until Something Happens).

Psalms 23:1  ¶<<A Psalm of David.>> 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  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5  Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou
anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6  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.

 

Below are additional encouraging words pertaining to our Shepard by Pastor
Joseph Prince. Please be blessed by his Devotion.

 

God bless,

Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door
of the sheep. 


John 10:7 

 



- 
JESUS, YOUR GOOD SHEPHERD AND DOOR 



  _____  



Jesus said that He is the “door of the sheep.” What did He mean? Well, a
sheepfold during Jesus’ time had no door which could be opened and closed.
The door of the sheepfold was just an opening. In this kind of sheepfold,
after the sheep had entered it, the shepherd would sleep at the entrance.
The shepherd became, effectively, the “door” of the sheepfold.

When Jesus told His disciples, “I am the good shepherd” (John 10:11), He
also assured them emphatically that He was the “door of the sheep.” He was
telling them and us, “Inside My sheepfold, My sheep are always safe,
completely protected and kept close under My watchful eyes. And since I am
just at the entrance of the sheepfold, nothing, not even the muffled bleat
of one of My own, can escape My ears. Also, nothing evil outside the
sheepfold can enter and touch My sheep without first coming through Me for I
am the door of My sheep.”

So when the fight of life comes knocking on your door and when panic
threatens to rise within you, see yourself doubly protected! He is both the
good shepherd and the door of His sheep. As your good shepherd, He gave His
life for you to redeem you from poverty, sickness and every other curse.

As your door, He keeps out everything evil that He has redeemed you from.
Because He shed His blood for you, you are covered and protected within the
sheepfold by a blood-stained door. Disaster, destruction and death must pass
over you and your family because of His blood on your door. Remember that on
the night of the first Passover in Egypt, the destroyer could not enter the
houses of the Israelites because of the blood of the lamb on their doors
(see Exodus 12:13, 23).

Today, you can live life untroubled and unafraid, knowing that Jesus, your
good shepherd and door, protects and preserves you and your family. No evil
will befall you or your loved ones because He is your dwelling place and
refuge!
