Psalms 32:8 (NKJV), “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.”

I love the Message Translation of this verse, it says, “Let me give you some good advice; I'm looking you in the eye and giving it to you straight:” Did you know the Lord wants to lead us with ease, in the direction that is best for our lives. We can receive His practical wisdom concerning all things, by just paying careful attention to Him. In the verse that follows, it says we don’t have to be led by Him like a stubborn horse or mule, that needs a painful bit in their mouths, to force them into submission to go in a certain direction. We don’t have to stumble our way through life, to only get on the right path after being hurt, or having to endure painful experiences, to eventually arrive at His best. There is an easier way to walk in God’s best for us. Proverbs 4:20 says, “My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings.” In the Hebrew context of this verse, it describes a horse that pricks up its ears and turns them in a direction to hear something. We can certainly do the same with our spiritual ears. We can focus on the voice of the Lord, tuning in to hear Him with clarity, as we silence every other distraction. No matter what problem or trouble you may be experiencing in your life, God knows exactly what you need to solve it. Just lean in and hear His voice. God’s written Word is filled with His wisdom, and His Holy Spirit makes it clear to us so we can understand it, and practically apply it to our lives. We make God’s wisdom the principle thing in our lives, by giving His Word our full attention. His Holy Spirit makes His ways known to us, so we can walk in them, and live in His provision and peace. Nothing is stopping you from hearing and receiving God’s wisdom for the answer you need, today. Give Him your full attention, and you will hear Him speak through the infallible wisdom of His Word.
