God’s
Guidance (Part 7)
Commit Everything to the Lord and
Trust in Him:
“Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it
to pass… Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him” (Ps
37:5, 7). Even when we do not see God’s will and way clearly, it is wise
for you and me to commit everything to the Lord, trust in Him, and wait
upon Him. It is a great testing when we have to wait upon the Lord in
urgent situations or in making an important decision. King Saul failed
to wait upon the Lord when he saw the enemies approaching and his people
scattering and hiding. He foolishly offered burnt sacrifices, thinking
that by doing that his people might be encouraged and strengthened, but
he was rebuked by the Lord (1 Sam 13:8-13). Dear friends, do you and I
patiently wait upon the Lord, trust in Him, and commit everything to Him
no matter whatever may happen to us in urgent situations and dangers?
Walk after the Lord Jesus Step by
Step: The Lord Jesus
followed the guidance of His Father (God) and faithfully fulfilled His
Father’s will and work regardless of the shameful and painful way of the
cross. Under human eyes, Jesus’ death on the cross was a hopeless end.
However, before God, the Lord Jesus would not die forever, but He would
arise triumphantly from the dead and become the risen Saviour of all
mankind! Let us look unto
“Jesus the
author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before
him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right
hand of the throne of God”
(Heb
12:2). It is wise and safe
for a sheep to walk after the Shepherd, and not to run before Him. You
and I do not know what may happen to us tomorrow, but if we trust in the
Lord and walk after Him step by step at a time, we shall be guided,
protected and blessed by Him.
