Luke 15:7 tells us that the whole heaven rejoices when one soul is won. It is the work of the shepherd to care for the souls of the Lord. They are tasked to watch over them, discipline them, teach them, guide them, etc. For this reason, shepherds are the heart beat of the Lord. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself is called the "Good Shepherd". To shepherd a soul is the greatest work and greatest miracle here on earth and those who do it faithfully will have a great reward. The salvation of a soul is precious in the sight of God and is the only event that is able to move the entire heavenly host to rejoice and celebrate the blood and the done work of the cross. Most importantly, shepherds must follow the Chief Shepherd-Jesus Christ-to lay down their lives. They must first follow Him and then teach the congregation to follow as well, according to the will of God.
