Knowing God - God Instructs and Teaches

Isa 28:26
 For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him.
God Instructs and Teaches


This verse is taken from a section where a farmer’s job is being described.  It is quite detailed on the tools and procedures involved with farming.  Here, we see that it is God that gives the farmer the know-how to do his farming.  God shows him when, with what tools, in which order and how to do his job.  Our God knows how to do everything.  He wants to instruct us in whatever ‘farming’ we have to do.  Are you starting a new job or position?  Be open and dependent on God to lead you to the right resources, mentors or training that would equip you to work well.  Do you have something you have to do around the house that you really don’t think you are quite gifted in?  Call out to the Lord, ask Him to teach you and then…be instructed by Him.  He will begin to lead you and give you the peace you need to do the things you have been called to do.  Resist self confidence.  Replace it with a confidence in a God who loves to instruct and teach.  Approach your work with an open heart and humble mind.  Watch how he can give you good success and be certain to thank Him and give Him the glory!
