Passage: John 10:7-15
Live.
“I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8 All who came before me were thieves and robbers. But the true sheep did not listen to them. 9 Yes, I am the gate. Those who come in through me will be saved. They will come and go freely and will find good pastures. 10 The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. John 10:7-10 (NLT)
Jesus’ purpose is ___________________________________________________________!
- John 5:26 (NLT) – The Father has life in himself, and He has granted that same life-giving power to His Son.
I will live the life Jesus came to give me...
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep.
John 10:11 (NLT)
1.) When I _____________________________________________________________.
- John 5:24 (NIV84) – I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life
“I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me, 15 just as my Father knows me and I know the Father. So I sacrifice my life for the sheep.
John 10:14-15 (NLT)
2.) When I __________________________________________ as my Good Shepherd.
- Psalm 23:1 (KJV) – The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
I will live the life Jesus came to give me, as I daily trust Him, come to know Him intimately, and remain contented with Jesus as my personal good shepherd.
