Psalm 23

Psalm 23 is probably the best known OT passage.  As a hymn of confidence, Psalm 23 pictures Jehovah as the disciple's Shepherd-King-Host.  The psalm progressively unveils the psalmist personal relationship with Jehovah in three stages.

1.  Exclamation - Jehovah is My Shepherd (23:1)

2.  Expectations - I Shall Not Want; I Will Fear No Evil (23:1-5)

3.  Exultation - My Cup Runs Over (23:5-6)

Allow Jehovah to shepherd you...to rule you...to host you.
