Let Us Ask To Be Taught Aright

God is never irritated by the candle of an honest seeker. God reveals Himself to those who search for Him. So I have learned to stop analyzing the mystery and just sit at Jesus’ feet.

Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground (Psalm 143:10).

Teach me, O Lord, the meaning of Your statutes, and I will always keep them. Help me understand Your instruction, and I will obey it and follow it with all my heart (Psalm 119:33-34).

Teach me Your way, O Lord, and I will live by Your truth. Give me an undivided mind to fear [only] Your name (Psalm 86:11).

So teach us to number our days, that we may present to You a heart of wisdom (Psalm 90:12). O that my ways may be established to keep Your statutes (Psalm 119:5).

I have told [You] of my ways, and You have answered [and forgiven] me; teach me Your statutes. Make me understand the way of Your precepts, so I will mediate on Your wonders (Psalm 119:26-27).

Make me walk in the path of Your commandments, for I delight in it (Psalm 119:35). Establish Your word to your servant who is devoted to fearing you. (Psalm 119:38).

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6). There is no wisdom and no understanding and no counsel that can succeed against the Lord (Proverbs 21:30).

God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to a man who is good in His sight (Ecclesiastes 2:26). Oh, that the Lord God may tell us the way in which we should walk and the thing that we should do (Jeremiah 42:3).

Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become foolish that he may become wise [in spiritual things]. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written: He is the one who catches the wise in their craftiness” (1 Corinthians 3:18-19).

If anyone supposes that he knows anything, he has not yet known it as he ought to know it (1 Corinthians 8:2). When I was a child, I spoke as a child, thought as a child, reasoned as a child; when I became a man, I put away childish things (1 Corinthians 13:11).

Brothers, do not be children in your thinking; yet in evil be babes, but in thinking be mature (1 Corinthians 14:20).
