Psalm 95:7
“For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,”
KJV
Read in Psalm 95Meaning
Covenant belonging is pictured as pastoral care, but privilege carries a present call to listen.
Read carefully
The verse speaks of God’s pastoral care; it does not authorize abusive human authority.
Reflection
Treat belonging to God as a call to responsive trust, not passive status.
