Most of us have been
on tours. Usually,
there is a tour
guide. Six years
ago, in Rome, we had
a guide. She would
get far ahead of us
and wore us out, but
she was a good
guide. She was
trustworthy and
didn't miss a beat
with our
destinations. That
is a guide's job.
I need not say, it
matters not how
great of a guide
your travel agent
sets you up with, no
guide on the face of
this earth can guide
like God. The first
seven verses of
today's text,
someone else is
talking. At verse
eight, God steps in.
Trust means to take
refuge, to lean on,
to roll on, to wait
for. All of us needs
the trustworthiness
of God. I need God
to lead me because
every once in a
while, my pathway
gets a little
gloomy. God is the
all seeing eye. God
can see at a
distance with an
unobstructed view.
He's God yesterday,
today, and forever.
In life, we're going
to experience some
complex matters that
will test our
highest knowledge
and our deepest
commitment. How will
we make it? Do we
have any assurance
that we will
successfully make it
through this journey
called life? Trust
God's guidance. He
can help you make it
successfully, IF you
trust Him. Trust for
strength in your
uncertainties. Trust
is a sufficient
roadmap for
difficulties and
pressures ahead.
Corona virus has the
world upset, Spring
Breaks have been
cancelled, CDC says
it will be one year
before a vaccine can
be developed. God
says in our text,
verse 8, "I will
instruct thee and
teach thee in the
way which thou shalt
go: I will guide
thee with mine eye."
The Bible tells us
to "Trust in the
Lord with all thine
heart, and lean not
to thine own
understanding; in
all thy ways
acknowledge Him and
He shall direct thy
path." God can guide
in every
development.
Traveling with God
is all right.
There are 3
conditions that
determine God's
guidance.
1. We must
acknowledge Him in
all of our steps.
2. We must trust Him
in our special need.
When no one else can
help you, trust God.
What about your
trust level when you
are unaware that you
need God?
3. Do not rely on
your own insight.
Life is absolutely
inadequate without
God.
God will take you
through life if you
lean on Him. You
could end up messing
up your life and
someone else's. Read
the story about
Sarah and Hagar in
the Bible. Abraham
and Sarah did not
trust God. If you
seek God, He will be
found. If you
forsake God, you
will be cast off
forever. You can't
make it without Him.
Don't wait until you
think you're ready,
don't trust your
thinking. Accept the
invitation to
salvation. We need
God's guidance. His
word keeps us. Thank
God for having His
eye on me. He guided
Peter with His eye,
he will guide you.
Tell God your life
is headed in the
wrong direction and
ask Him to step in.
