Today's Reading:
Psalm 143:10
"Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God; thy Spirit is good, lead me into the land of righteousness. " (v. 10 AKJV)
If there is anything God wants in the life of His children, it is for us to know His will and carry it out. No wonder in Matthew 6 verse .10, the Bible says, "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven." When we are talking about His will, we are talking about His desire, longings for us, intentions, decision and wish for us.
Jesus Christ one day was with His disciples when suddenly, His mother and brethren came to meet Him while ministering. Someone came to tell Him about them, but He rather told them, pointed hand toward His disciples, as His mother, brother and sister saying in the book of Matthew 12 verse 50 "For whosoever shall do the WILL of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister and mother." Just as parents can always show interest in the children that follow instructions and obey them, likewise we become His, if we follow His will at all times, by keeping to all the precepts in the Bible to keep our relationship with Him and men.
The benefits of His will for us are enormous. We become His oracles here on earth ,the apple of His eyes, He will be good to us and we reign with Him eternally. Brethren, like the psalmist, let us ask Him to teach us His will at all times. The Lord demands our holy and righteous living in all facets of our lives.
