Prayer Focus-Instruction

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of Focus, we take a look at the prayer of David seeking God for instruction.

If we want to understand the heart of David in pursuit of God, we can examine some of his prayers. They reveal a heart that is teachable and open to correction. They reveal a heart that understood the wisdom of God to be higher than his own.

In Psalm 25:4 and 5, David prayed, “Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.”

The prayer of David, seeking God for instruction, is worth examining for a faith-focused life.
