Look after the flock (2)
“And as for you, My flock, thus says the Lord God, ‘Behold, I judge between one sheep and another, between the rams and the male goats [between the righteous and the unrighteous].
Is it too little a thing for you that you [unrighteous ones who are well-fed] feed in the best pasture, yet you must trample down with your feet [of wickedness] the rest of your pastures? Or that you drink clear [still] water, yet you must muddy with your feet [of wickedness] the rest [of the water]? As for My flock (the righteous), they must feed on what you trample with your feet and drink what you muddy with your feet!’ ”
Therefore thus says the Lord God to them, “Behold, I Myself will judge between the [well-fed] fat sheep and the lean sheep. Because you push with side and shoulder, and gore with your horns all those that have become weak and sick until you have scattered them away, therefore, I will rescue My flock, and they shall no longer be prey; and I will judge between one sheep [ungodly] and another [godly].”
~ Ezekiel 34.17-22 AMP
This passage is usually cross-referenced with Matthew 25.31-46 - a passage on judgement day. Pretty serious message, but one that is often neglected by wealthy so-called “Christians”.
Dear Lord,
please help me be sensitive
to the needs of the righteous and the poor
and to generously extend help
for the glory of your name
