When the Only Way Out is Through | Apostle Jim Raley

David was not writing poetry from a palace. He was running for his life, barefoot on a mountain, his own son hunting him, his throne gone, his closest counselor defected. And right there in the valley he made the most audacious declaration a broken man could make: The Lord is my shepherd. Present tense. Right now. No matter what the mess looked like. In this message from Psalm 23, Apostle Jim Raley walks through the shepherd's care in the middle of the through. God did not design a detour, He designed a through, and the through is not a punishment or abandonment, it is the corridor to your destiny. He restores your soul for His name's sake, He prepares a table in the presence of your enemies, and He anoints your head with oil for the fight. Whatever the valley cost you, it did not cost you your oil. You are still walking, which means the valley has not finished you, and goodness and mercy have been hunting you your whole life. They are not stopping in this valley. Walk through, because the Shepherd is ahead of you.
