THEME: WHAT GOD CAN DO - 2
TEXT: Psalm 32:8-11
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.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about.
11 Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
MEMORY VERSE:
They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. Psalm 125:1
MESSAGE:
Before God made man the promise to guide us with His eye, He had said He will instruct us and teach us in the way we should go. The process is this: Instruct, teach and then guide. He knows we are human and could fail in abiding by the instructions and teachings that He provides. So, He said He will guide us with His eye to ensure we walk according to His instruction and teaching. That brings us to the issue of responsibility.
One man of God said, any faith that makes God totally responsible is irresponsible faith. That means in our relationship with God, we have our own responsibility to bear: that is subjecting ourselves to His instruction and teaching. Child of God, you must humble yourself to hear or read the the word of God, the word of God is the beginning of the journey. You cannot go the right way if you do not study the word of God. You may not even know what to do if you are far from the word of God. A child of God who fails to read his Bible everyday is susceptible to missteps. A Christian who has no time for prayers cannot go far. A believer who keeps away from fellowship stands the risk of heading for a dead end. When we fail to read or study the word of God, when we lack strong prayer life, when we succumb to temptation of keeping away from the fellowship of the saints, we are not likely to go the right way. That is why it is important on a daily basis, we work with the consciousness of the spirit of God in us.
The text we read said: "Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and brittle, " (Psalm 32:9). A horse or a mule is an animal which has no understanding. No human being would like to be referred to as an animal. An animal has no understanding because God did not create it to be like man. They are two different creatures.
God warns against you living a life of an animal - without understanding. That is why you must subject yourself to His instruction and His teaching and then reply on Him to guide and direct you. To be concluded tomorrow.
PRAYER POINTS:
* Sing the song, "I will guide thee with my eye..." 3 times.
* Ask God for the grace to live a righteous life every moment.

Are you one of those that put on nude dresses, short skirts, transparent dresses to seduce
(A seducer is not a Christian) do you wear trouser as a woman?
Repent and give your life to Jesus Christ.
LET'S PRAY:
If you want to give your life to JESUS pray this short prayer with me:
Almighty God, I come unto you in the name of Jesus. Father I confess that I am a sinner. All my sins I confess to you. I am very sorry for all my sins.
Lord I promise you that from today I will never continue in them anymore.
I believe that Jesus Christ died and rose again on the third day for my justification. Almighty God, use the blood of Jesus to wash my sins away. Lord Jesus, come into my heart, be my Lord and Personal Savior.
I surrender my life to you.
Cancel my name from the book of death and give me grace to make Heaven. AMEN!
