The Lord Jesus Christ, we should understand, is the Good Shepherd of all of God’s saints, both Old Testament and New. He is the One who was prophesied of, in verse 6 of our text, where it says: “In His days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell safely; Now this is His name by which He will be called: The Lord our Righteousness. Let me give you this proposition of truth which I will build upon in the rest of this sermon: Pastors will always be wise and good if they follow the lead and example of their Shepherd-King, in being righteous men in accordance with the truth of the word of God. Let us ask ourselves this question: How does the pastor of a church, an under-shepherd, care for Christ’s sheep? I believe that there are 4 ways which are shown to us in this text which will answer that question. 1st – He attends to them. (verse 2) 2nd – He helps to gather them. (verse 3) 3rd – He will feed them. (verse 4) And 4th – He will always be pointing them to the righteousness of Christ. Let us consider together the holy responsibilities of the shepherds of Christ’s sheep.
