Seed for Jan 1

Often times in the Psalms David will speak to God, and then sandwiched in between will be God speaking to David. Such a verse is here:

Ps 32:8
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.
(NIV)

As I read and pondered this I decided that would be my theme for 2008. I am going to trust the Lord Jesus to instruct me and teach me the way that I should go. I expect the prompting of the Spirit and will respond to that prompting, trusting it to be Jesus’ way of leading me. He will counsel me, and keep His eyes upon me. He will watch over me for goodness sake! Now, what do I have to dread in light of these great and precious promises from God Himself? Each of us have right to lay claim on this Word of promise for ourselves and rest assuredly in the fact that God is a God of His Word. What He has promised He is well able to perform. So why not expect Him to instruct you, lead you, counsel you, and watch over you in 2008 in a new and exciting way? You have done it your way so long…why not do it His way this time? Be blessed
