Wana appDaily Bible Reading – October 2022: God’s Renewing Word of Peace and JusticeChikamu
October 30
Introduction
God promises to rescue the people and care for them and be their shepherd.
Scripture Reading
Ezekiel 34:11-31
Today’s Key Verse: Ezekiel 34:31
“You, my sheep, the flock that I feed, are my people, and I am your God,” says the Sovereign LORD.
Reflect
The image of the LORD as a shepherd is common in the Bible (see Genesis 49:24; Psalm 23;1; Isaiah 40:11; John 10:11; Hebrews 13:20). Reread verses 11-16. The “dark, disastrous day” (verse 12) refers to the time when the people were led away as prisoners following the Babylonian conquest of Jerusalem (586 B.C.). In what ways will God, as a shepherd, care for his “sheep”? What words of hope are given in today’s reading? What are your thoughts concerning the image of God as a shepherd?
Pray
Sovereign God, you are my shepherd. Thank you for your steadfast love and care and for feeding me and nourishing me each day with your holy word. Amen.
