"You are My flock"

Text: Ezekiel 34:31

GOD’S PROTECTION

God gave a glorious promise in the New Covenant of Peace. This text offers a glimpse of the Messianic reign that God would establish one day.

“‘And they shall no longer be a prey for the nations,
nor shall beasts of the land devour them;
but they shall dwell safely,
and no one shall make them afraid.
I will raise up for them a garden of renown,
and they shall no longer be consumed with hunger in the land,
nor bear the shame of the Gentiles anymore.
Thus they shall know that I, the Lord their God, am with them,
and they, the house of Israel, are My people,’ says the Lord God.
‘You are My flock, the flock of My pasture;
you are men, and I am your God.’ says the Lord God.”
