The LORD says, “I will teach you the way you should go; I will instruct you and advise you. Don't be stupid like a horse or a mule, which must be controlled with a bit and bridle to make it submit.”
- Psalm 32:8 - 9
Can you see how strongly God speaks here, letting you know that He does not see or regard you as an animal? It displeases Him that He has to emphasize that it is not His purpose to adopt "bit and bridles" (disappointments and unpleasant experiences) to draw your attention and persuade you to listen to Him. It's an animal that deserves to be treated as such, but He created you to be like Himself. (In His Image and Likeness) rather than like a bull.You carry God’s kind of mind and intelligence. In other words, you are "God-smart," and that's very exciting to know. So, He does not expect that He should be giving you the same instructions over and over again while after forever you still remain in the same place.
It's a whole different ball game when you make mistakes while trying to follow His instructions. We're talking about refusing to obey God because we disagree with Him on something. This could be about how to handle relationships, business, ministry, or even raising our children.
If you genuinely appreciate the excellence of God's wisdom, which is giving you this counsel, you will not hesitate to follow every command God has given you in His word. This is truly the wisest thing to do because the words are coming from the same person who with great wisdom and the power of His words, made all the great wonders we see in creation. In the following scriptures, God Himself says no human can match Him in wisdom.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.
- Isaiah 55:9
Now I said all of that to explain that God has given you His word that He will instruct you and teach you the path to go. This means that He will never leave you alone, and you can always believe that He is watching over you even when you don't feel like He is. You can be certain that your expectations will never be cut short.
Additionally, it's important to note that when we choose to follow God's guidance, it's not a one-time decision, but rather a daily commitment. We need to continually seek His direction and wisdom through prayer and studying His Word.
When we do make mistakes or veer off course, we can always come to God in repentance and receive His forgiveness and guidance to get back on track. We don't have to be afraid of punishment or harsh discipline because God's discipline is always loving and meant to bring us closer to Him.
All you have to do is cast all your worries on Him in prayer and quietly wait for Him to guide you safely through all the storms. Because He never fails, keeping His word is the only way to ensure your ultimate victory and joy.
Finally, let's embrace the truth that God desires to lead us and guide us in every area of our lives, and let's commit ourselves to following His guidance daily. As we do so, we can trust that He will lead us to a place of ultimate victory and joy. If you choose to follow His lead today, then you can afford to wear a smile no matter the situation because you will surely overcome it.
You will say this to yourself:
The Lord is my teacher, and His Word informs my mind. I have complete trust in His promises, and His Word is actively working for my benefit. I receive wisdom and comfort through His unfailing Word consistently. Hallelujah!
