Praise Posts 2025 - Day 5

 

Good Shepherd

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. John 10:10-11KJV

 

Abba,

 

This is one of my favorite passages of scripture. John10:10 tells what the Good Shepherd does – give us abundant life; and John 10:11 describes why the Good Shepherd came – to give His life for us.

 

When we get those two things in our hearts and minds, we must realize the Good Shepherd has only the best motives for us. When life is hard, and we feel like You are not moving, we need to remember Your goodness.

 

Your plans and purposes for us will not fail! You will not let us miss our own future. We will end up right where You want us to be.

 

We rest in that fact. We love, honor and adore You. There is no one like YOU!

 

In Jesus’ name, so be it, amen.

Welcome to Day 5 of Praise Posts 2025, a tradition that has been featured on the Journey every November since 2014.

This year’s praise posts are 10 days of prayers based on 10 of the Names and Attributes of God. There will be links below to each Praise Post.

We started on November 18, 2025, and will end on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 2025.

I pray you enjoy, and also are prompted to examine your life and see where the Lord has shown up for you. (This is a practice that doesn't have to be just for Thanksgiving - being grateful for who God is should be practiced every day of the year!)
