Bible Reading: Psalm 48
Key Verse: Verse 14 – “For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto
death.”
Key Words: he will be our guide
Following
the guidance of God is a necessity for the believer.
~
Dante
said, “In His will is our peace.”
~
George
Truett said, “To know the will of God is the greatest knowledge. To do the will of God is the greatest
achievement.”
~
A.
T. Pierson once said, “To go as I am led, to go when I am led, to go where I am
led; this is the prayer of my life.”
One
night as the famous Bible teacher F. B. Meyer stood on the deck of a ship
approaching land, he wondered how the crew knew when and how to safely steer to
the dock. It was a stormy night, and
visibility was low. Meyer, standing on
the bridge and peering through the window, asked the captain, “How do you know
when to turn the ship into the narrow harbor?”
“That’s an
art,” replied the captain, “Do you see those three red lights on the
shore? When they are all in a straight
line, we turn into the harbor.”
Later Meyer
said, “When we want to be guided by God and know His will, there are three
lights that occur: the light of desire will appear, the light of God’s Word,
and the light of opportunity will come on.”
In essence
Meyer was saying, God will place a desire in your heart; that desire will agree
with God’s Word; and God will open a door of opportunity for you to carry out
the desire He placed upon your heart.
There is
nothing more exciting in the life of the believer than following God’s guidance
and doing His will.
What to do:
✞Do God’s will daily.
✞Do the little things; they
always lead to bigger things.
