Discipline...instruction...teaching

“Blessed is the man whom You discipline… instruct… teach… that You may give him power to keep himself calm in the days of adversity…” Psalm 94:12-13

If you find yourself handling adverse issues a lot better than you used to, then be proud of yourself - you have become truly, truly blessed by the Lord.

Praise God for His direction, guidance and counsel.

 

The anointing

“But as for you, the anointing (the sacred appointment, the unction) which you received from Him abides [permanently] in you; [so] then you have no need that anyone should instruct you…” 1 John 2:27 AMPC

When it comes to living a righteous life and making good and godly choices, you don’t need to keep asking the world, you only need to ask God.  The answer resides within– the Holy Spirit – and His answers will never lead in the wrong direction, or cause wrong choices to be made.

So, stay away from the world when it comes to making big decisions or seeking big answers.  Instead, seek God, He will never let you down.

All you have to do is ask

“You also gave your good Spirit to instruct them… “ +Nehemiah 9:20

God didn’t put you in this world to live lost, confused, defeated, or alone.  No, He put you here to be the flesh for His Spirit.  Therefore, you never have to worry that there is no answer, no way out, no direction, or nowhere to go, because with God living within you, there is always a way, an answer, a direction, and a place to go.

Yes, God lives within you, so ask Him for instruction, and when you take one baby step in faith, He will carry you forward a thousand more.
