And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

“I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.” John 10:14 KJV Sheep need guidance and protection. They can’t fend for themselves. They can’t take care of themselves.

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” Ephesians 5:11 KJV I Corinthians 1:9 says, “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” Fellowship is a good thing.
