After the shepherds of Israel mistreated and kicked out the man born blind in chapter 9, Jesus announced in John 10:1-21 that he is the Good Shepherd. While false shepherds sacrificed the sheep for their own benefit, the Good Shepherd laid down his life for the sheep. The question for us is if we know his voice and follow him. (sermon notes)
Because of God’s work of salvation in us, we need to work out our salvation.
King Nebuchadnezzar exited the scene with an important lesson for all of us about who is the real King.
Starting the day by focusing on the LORD orients the entire day toward him.
