DEVOTIONAL
Daily Lectionary: 2 Samuel 6:1-19; 1 Corinthians 9:1-23
Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. (Acts 20:28)
In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. The Lord Jesus has given you your pastor. He’s the Lord’s man, and he cares for you. When you couldn’t do anything to save you, your pastor was there to baptize you, washing you in Jesus’ blood, clothing you with Him, and giving you the Spirit and faith. When you’re in trouble, you’ve messed up, or are struggling, your pastor is there to forgive your sins, preach the Gospel to you, and to tell you that you have been purchased with the precious blood of Jesus. Your pastor is there to give you the Body and Blood of your Savior to strengthen your faith in God and your love toward others. Your pastor is there to bless you and care for you from font until grave.
He cares for you as your Jesus cares for you. Jesus is your Good Shepherd. “You will not want” not only because Jesus cares for you but because your pastor cares for you. Jesus cares for you through your pastor. Your pastor is an under-shepherd. “Pastor” means “shepherd.” He shepherds you by bringing you to Jesus, in all the ways that Jesus has given. He defends you against the wolves who would devour you and protects you from the false doctrines that would hurt and harm your soul. When your pastor does all of this, he’s fulfilling his Jesus- and Spirit-given calling. He fulfills what Paul says, “Take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.”
Pray for your pastor. Give him a hug. Tell him about Jesus’ love. He needs to hear it, too! Most of all give thanks that you’re led to Jesus and given Him in water, Word, Body and Blood, and that it all comes to you by the mouth and hand of your pastor, whom God has given as a gift to you. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.
You, O Lord, Yourself have called him For Your precious lambs to care; But to prosper in his calling, He the Spirit’s gifts must share. Give him wisdom from above, Fill his heart with holy love; In his weakness, Lord, be near him, In his prayers, Good Shepherd, hear him. (Send, O Lord, Your Holy Spirit, LSB 681:2)
