How does God instruct us? What are God’s instructions for?
God instructs us in righteousness and goodness. We are instructed so that we can serve God faithfully with all we are. God is good and faithful and has done marvelous things for us.
In the history book of Israel, 1 Samuel, the Prophet Samuel, in his farewell speech, said to Israel, “I will instruct you in the good and the right way. Only fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart. For consider what great things he has done for you.” (1 Samuel 12:23-24, ESV).
God inducts us for whole-hearted service, in his goodness and righteousness.
May we fear God and serve him faithfully with our whole heart, considering who God is and all he has done for us.
A Collect for Endurance: “Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we, walking in the way of the Cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
