THE WANDERED SHEEP
Greetings to all in the name of our GOD. How has our walk with GOD being? The topic before us is termed the wandered sheep. What is a wandered sheep? who is a wandered sheep? These we shall elucidate. To wander is to move away from the place you ought to be or the people you are with. It is to go stray. Also it means a person’s mind or thoughts to stop being directed on something and to move without much control to other ideas. Many have drifted and wandered away, as believers or as GOD’s creation we are sheep’s and he is our shepherd. The psalmist says the lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. JESUS is the good shepherd he keeps and nurture us, that we may not lack nor want anything. So many of us are a wandered sheep, we have gone astray from the shepherd. We have left the place the shepherd put us. Our thoughts are not godly again. We take decisions on our own; we don’t ask the good shepherd on our decisions again. It is a disaster, lets picture this in a normal life, when a sheep goes beyond where the shepherd leads it, it wanders and get lost from other sheeps, that is how it is. In turn, if the sheep follows the shepherd’s rule, it won’t go astray; that is the picture am painting.
Unfortunately, most believers are lost, they have gone into the world and drifted away from the good shepherd’s plan for their lives. The psalmist says he maketh me to lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside the still waters, he restoreth my soul. When you are led and guided by the good shepherd you will be nourished, refreshed and restored. It continues yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me. A sheep needs not worry, when a good sheep leads it; even though it encounters death, the good shepherd is there, because he himself conquered death. Are you a wandered sheep? Maybe you realized you have drifted from GOD’s plans for your life; you are a wandered sheep. A wandered sheep is he who is not led by the spirit. The bible said as many that are led by the spirit of GOD are the sons of GOD. A wandered sheep knows he no longer enjoy peace of mind like before; he is afraid of tomorrow. He has lost interest in the things of the spirit. A wandered sheep walks not in the spirit, he fulfills the work of the flesh. He is open to all dangers of life, because there is no one leading and guiding it. What a disaster, he has lost direction; he heads anywhere even if the zone he heads to is a danger zone, something is missing the Good shepherd.
Finally, if you find yourself in the category of the wandered sheep; it is not the end, but you have to find your way back to the Good shepherd, before it’s too late. 1Peter 2 vs 24 says: he personally carried the load of our sins in his own body, when he died on the cross so that we can be finished with sins and live a good life from now on. vs 25 says: like the sheep you wandered away from GOD, but now you have returned to your shepherd, the guardian of your souls who keep you safe from all attacks, come back to him. It is well…….
