Psalm 23-24

Psalm 23 is the best loved, most known, most quoted Psalm in the Bible. It resonates in our hearts in so many circumstances. Christ is the good shepherd. We are reminded we lack nothing. He leads, guides, comforts, supplies and anoints – and we are pursued by His goodness and love.

If Psalm 23 tells us of God’s personal care, Psalm 24 reminds us of His majesty. “The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world and all who live in it!!” v1. To approach Him, one must have clean hands, not grasping or greedy, a pure heart, and come in humility. But the invitation is then to all to welcome the “King of Glory...mighty in battle, “the Lord Almighty!”
