The sermon continues a study of Psalm 23, emphasizing that the psalmist’s words “The Lord is my shepherd” belong to those who have submitted to Christ and are part of his fold, as opposed to those who merely acknowledge God or find the psalm comforting. The preacher points to the emphatic words “yea” in verse 4 and “surely” in verse 6, comparing the usage to Psalm 19. Three assurances are drawn out: “I shall not want,” “I will fear no evil,” and “I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” The sermon closes with an invitation to believe, repent, confess Christ, and be baptized for the remission of sins.
