“8. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. 9. Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.”
Psalm 32 is a psalm of repentance in David’s life. We are not sure exactly where David is at, but we can take some great truths and apply it to our life. We encourage you to pick up your Bible and read Psalm 32 today. Verse 5 we see David coming to the place of repentance. “I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid, I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.” God wants to direct all of us, but we must realize we cannot live with sin in our lives. At the end of verse 8 God says, “…I will guide thee with mine eye.” Many believers fail to see God’s will for their life because their too focused on their own eye sight rather than God’s. God has a wonderful life for every born-again believer, but many miss out, because they try everything their way. We tend to resemble verse 9 more than anything; A stubborn old mule that has to be lead with a bit in its mouth. We are thankful that God has called us to a unique hunting ministry in dealing with sportsmen and wild animals, but even in a ministry like this you can easily go the wrong direction if your not looking to God’s ways. Let me ask this question, “Do you have sin in your life?” David shows us in Psalm 32 that we must first repent before we can see God’s path for us! Get rid of sin in your life today! Repent and turn to the Lord! God has a great life for you! Are you looking to Him for direction? God’s ways are higher than our ways and God’s thoughts are higher than our thoughts according to Jeremiah. Wherever you may be in life today, be patient and look to God for your path in life! Look again at what God says to us once we get sin out of our life, “I will instruct thee…I will guide thee…” God is so good to us! Look to the Lord and trust Him!
