Show me your ways, O 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. —Psalm 25:4-5
The Holy Spirit is impressing this upon people across the earth. He is taking what David saw in the heart of God, combining it with all that Jesus revealed about the Father’s heart in the New Testament, and causing an explosion of revelation about the emotions of God’s heart to come into the body of Christ. People are listening to this message and developing rock-solid resolve to be scholars of God’s emotions, as David was. This explains the deep, worldwide hunger people have to experience God in a way that goes beyond what many churches are accustomed to. We must fix it in mind that David was a man after God’s heart primarily because he sought to understand the emotions of God—and we must do the same.
{ PRAYER STARTER }
Father, I confess that I do not understand all that I should know about You and Your great purposes. Let me discover more about You daily; teach me Your ways, and show me Your path of righteousness.
Our attainment of mature love happens over months,
years, and decades, and the results will be
seen in due time as we bear fruit.
