(Nuggets from Psalm 32:8)
Culled from Psalm 32:8, Nathaniel Niles wrote the hymn "I WILL GUIDE THEE" in 1873. It is a reminder that God’s unwavering watch and care provides direction and comfort to every weary pilgrim facing temptation, grief and troubles in the journey from earth into eternity.
God promises to GUIDE all those who depend on Him with His eye, giving them instruction, teaching, and guidance all through their earthly pilgrimage, a blessing worth having.
This verse affirms that God offers His counsel, instruction, and guidance through His revealed truth - the inspired Scriptures, which are accessible, objective, and reliable.
The word “instruct” carries the sense of making someone understand or giving insight through careful teaching. This is not a one-time flash of divine inspiration but a process of imparting wisdom and discernment. God is ever-ready to teach, and pointing out a direction to His own Children who trust in Him and not just see Him as an OPTION.
The final phrase, “I will guide thee with mine eye” emphasizes God’s personal involvement in the lives of His people.
The expression “with mine eye" shows how God has got His eyes on all who rely on Him. It expresses the idea of providence, attention, and concern. God watches over His people, by observing and guiding them through His commands and judgments, as revealed in His Word.
ALL GOD NEEDS YOU TO DO IS TO SHOW HIM HOW MUCH YOU DEPEND ON HIM LIKE A SHEEP DEPENDS ON THE SHEPHERD FOR PASTURE; HE WILL GUIDE AND WATCH OVER YOU.
