IV. Conclusion: The Rest of the Story In Ezekiel 34:22-24 the Lord promised his people, “I will rescue my flock; they shall no longer be a prey. And I will judge between sheep and sheep. And I will set up over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he shall feed them and be their shepherd. And I, the L ORD, will be their God, and my servant David shall be prince among them. I am the L ORD ; I have spoken.” God indeed sent his servant shepherd. His name is Jesus. Like his forefather David, but even more so, he would be the Lord’s anointed King and a man after God’s own heart.

IV. Conclusion: The Rest of the Story He would be the chosen servant of Isaiah 53 and he would crush the heads of all our enemies following 40 days of battling the serpent Satan in the wilderness. He would use the weapon of our enemy—death—and defeat death, inviting his people who trust in him to share in his victory. This greater Son of David, would be crowned with power, wealth, wisdom, and might, for he is the lamb who was slain (Rev. 5:12). (continued)

IV. Conclusion: The Rest of the Story He also would receive a bride and make free all who are blood-related to him as their Savior and substitute. This Davidic King, through his victory, would see that all the earth would know that there is a God in Israel and that the Lord saves, for the battle is his! And, because we are in Christ, we do not fight for victory; we fight from victory! (continued)

IV. Conclusion: The Rest of the Story Christ has won. And so, wielding the sword of the Spirit (the Word of God) and empowered by the gospel, we in our champion move ahead against Satan, sin, death and hell because we know the gates of hell shall not stand against us (Matt. 16:18). These giants have been decapitated by our Good Shepherd— our Great Shepherd. (continued)
