获取软件Daily Bible Reading – June 2021, God’s Word of Hope预览
June 9
Introduction
Church leaders are encouraged to be like shepherds watching over their sheep (the people of God) until Christ, the Chief Shepherd, returns. They should do this willingly, not out of obligation, but out of joyful service to God.
Today’s Scripture Reading
1 Peter 5:1-14
Today’s Key Verse: 1 Peter 5:4
When the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the glorious crown which will never lose its brightness.
Reflect
In Jesus’s day, life was often difficult for shepherds. They spent most of their time outside watching over the herds, and often slept near their flocks to protect them from robbers and wild animals. Jesus identified with shepherds even though many looked down on them. How are church leaders like shepherds? What are the challenges of church leadership today?
Pray
Lord Jesus, our Great Shepherd, you call forth leaders to guide your church. Empower your leaders today, that they may be like shepherds, watching over your people and leading them home. Grant them wisdom and strength for their work, and bless their homes and families. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Church leaders
Tomorrow’s Reading:
2 Peter 1:1-21: God’s divine power gives us everything we need.
