INSTRUCTION, GUIDANCE, AND TEACHING

Psalms 24:8-11 LXX (25:8-11)

Good and upright is the Lord;
Therefore He will instruct sinners in His way.
He will guide the gentle in judgment;
He will teach the gentle His ways.
All the ways of the Lord are mercy and truth
For those who seek His covenant and His testimonies.
For Your name’s sake, O Lord,
Pardon my sin, for it is great.

Personal Challenge

The first step of our journey to be followers of Christ is humility. In humility we must recognize and admit that we can do nothing related to eternity on our own. We need One greater than us to take our hand and instruct us in His ways. We then continue exercising that humility and allow Him to guide us in His judgment showing us how to be gentle. By following this path He will teach us what we need to know to stay on His path. Through this process we experience His mercy and truth and can then apply that to those whom we meet in our lives. Glory be to God!
