In this sermon, Bro. Kevin Marsh explores the comfort and guidance found in Psalm 23, focusing on the Lord as our Shepherd. He explains that believers often struggle to find true rest because they try to carry and control everything themselves rather than trusting in God’s provision.

Key themes include:

• Finding Rest in God: The Lord “makes” us lie down in green pastures because we are not good at resting on our own. Rest is an act of obedience and trust, not laziness.

• Still Waters vs. Floods: God restores our soul with still waters, but we often chase the noise, chaos, and distractions that drain us. Marsh challenges listeners to seek the peace God offers instead of temporary substitutes.

• The Shepherd Became the Lamb: Drawing from John 10:11 and Isaiah 53, Marsh highlights that Jesus is the Good Shepherd who laid down His life for His sheep. Because He has already paid the price for our iniquity, we can release the guilt and burdens we carry.

• Surrender: The message concludes with a call to lay down what belongs to the Shepherd. Whether coming to Christ for the first time or returning to Him as a believer, the invitation is to trust Him fully and surrender every burden.
