Assurance of Guidance from God

29/8/2016

Psalm 32:7-11
You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.

Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you.
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But he who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him.

Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

Psalm 32:7
You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah

The Lord is our hiding place. He is our place of refuge. We will be safe in His care. He will save us from trouble. We will be delivered. Therefore, we do not need to worry. No matter what happens, He is with us in it.

As He has promised in Joshua 1:5
No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you.

Psalm 32:8
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.

The Lord says that He will instruct us. He will tell us what to do.

He says that He will teach us. He will give us His Wisdom and understanding by teaching us through the Holy Spirit.

He says that He will instruct us and teach us in the way that we should go. He already has a plan for us. He will tell us and show us His Plan and where to go and how to go about it. He will show us the way that we should go.

He says that He will guide us with His eye. He is watching over us. He sees our every move and our every step. He will guide and lead us in the way that we should go.

As in Proverbs 3:5-8:
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;

In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.

Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil.

It will be health to your flesh,
And strength to your bones.

When we trust God fully and acknowledge Him in everything, He will direct our paths and make them straight. We should not depend on our own understanding but instead look to His Wisdom and His Words and obey Him.

Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

As in Job 23:10
But He knows the way that I take;
When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.

Do not worry. He sees us. He knows the way that we take. He will guide us in the way that we should go. We will win the battle of faith in the trials.

Psalm 32:9
Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you.

In other words, do not be stubborn.

Psalm 32:10
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But he who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him.

Evil will not prevail. Trust in the Lord and obey Him and we will be safe.

Psalm 32:11
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

We can rejoice when we obey His Ways and live in His Righteousness and follow His Righteous Ways.
