TEACH ME THY PATHS

Scripture:  Psalm 25:4-5 “Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.”

     So often we have trouble finding the way that the Lord would have us to go.  We pray, we read His Word, we study and we pray some more, but still can’t seem to get settled on the right way.  The Psalmist here is praying for the Lord to show him the way and to teach him the path.  It may not have ever occurred to you that in revealing His way to us, many times, He does it by teaching us.  We learn a lot of things about God’s plan for our lives, by lessons we are taught by Him!
     The good thing about these lessons is that when we are taught the path we are to walk in, it will be more likely that we will remember it longer.  When the Lord teaches us His will for our lives, it’s a lesson we will probably remember for the rest of our lives!  When the Lord called me to preach, He did it in such a way that I will never forget!  He prays also that the Lord would lead him in His truth!  Such an encouraging thought that what the Lord teaches us about His way, it will always be the truth.  That’s the way we should desire to be lead today!  
    What was it that the Psalmist was to do after praying this prayer?  “On thee do I wait all the day.”  Just wait.  Keep on trusting Him and He will show you, He will teach you, He will lead you.  Be assured today that the Lord knows exactly what is best for you!  He knows the right way and He will teach you that way!  Have you prayed this prayer?  Why not ask Him to teach you today?
