Psalms 32:8. “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.”
CLOSER. The man in Psalm 32 is a “Blessed man” v.1 Protected man, v.2. Guiless man, v.2. Silent man, v.3. Oppressed man, v.4. Forgiven man, v.5. Godly man, v.6. Hidden man, v.7. Guided man, v.8. Stubborn man, v.9. Kept man, v.10. Glad man, v.11.
There is forgiveness and justification for the blessed man.
There is guilt and judgment without the Lord.
There is protection for those whose “iniquity is laid on Him.”
There is a change within when the spirit is made alive in Christ.
There is terrible tension within the soul when we don’t speak when we should.
There is sleeplessness and dryness of the heart when the soul is oppressed.
There is acceptance and relief when there is an open confession to the Lord.
There is a total life change when we are practicing the presence of God.
There is confident assurance and safety when the heart is resting comfortably in the Lord.
There is an increase in knowledge and awareness of the Lord’s ways when we are close enough to see His eye.
There is danger on every hand when I stubbornly refuse the guidance and instruction of the Lord.
There is no fear from the darkness around me when my trust is in the Lord alone.
There is gladness of heart, praises on the lips, and a vigorous enthusiasm for living when our joy is in the Lord.
“O Father of this blessed man: I need the Divine Teacher to let me see His face. I want to see His eyes; then, I will know where He is looking and can see where to go. I want to hear His voice and hear the instruction of the Divine Guide. Then, I need the will to “go.” Give this weak man some of the needed provisions of Thy strength. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
