God's Care and Guidance

Updated: May 2


Martin made many good points in his recent lesson about God’s care and guidance (which leads me to believe Rachel helped him prepare; )


From Psalms 9-10 and 15-16 the Lord delivered David and saved David. Why did the Lord deliver David so many times? 


First, because David  feared the Lord:


“Fear the Lord, you his holy people, for those who fear him lack nothing.”


‭‭        Psalms‬ ‭34‬:‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬


Second, David humbled himself before the Lord. David was a king who was personally chosen by God, yet David remained humble. 


While taking notes during Martin’s lessons I commonly jot down my own thoughts or questions. Looking over my notes from this recent lesson I noted the following:


God desires the best for me and He will lead me. Then I asked myself two questions. 

 1.  Do I let God lead?

 2.  Do I humble myself?


If I were to answer myself I would have to say sometimes to both questions. It’s not that I set out each day to not let God lead me or plan to go through the day being full of myself. The thing is, if I don’t plan to let God lead and if I don’t think about humbling myself then I probably won’t do either. I need to start each day with a plan to let God be God. 


My final note was this; God has blessed me in spite of myself. 

“The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to blot out their name from the earth.”


           Psalms‬ ‭34‬:‭15‬-‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

My righteousness comes solely and totally from the Lord. Amen
