“Teach me, O LORD, the way of Your statutes, and I shall keep it to the end.” Psalm 119:33a
PRAYING FOR DIVINE GUIDANCE
The psalmist recognized that he must do his part in learning the Scriptures. Human teachers are also involved in the learning process. But above all, he recognized the need for Divine guidance in the process of learning the ways of God. Hence this impassioned plea for God to teach.
“Teach me, O LORD, the way of Your statutes,
And I shall keep it to the end.
Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law;
Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
Make me walk in the path of Your commandments,
For I delight in it.
Incline my heart to Your testimonies,
And not to covetousness.”
Psalm 119:33-36
