Teach me

Psa 143:10  Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
Psa 143:11  Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

We need to be taught.  We definitely do not know it all, and we definitely need a teacher, and the Comforter that Jesus prayed to the Father to give to us, will teach us all we need to know in truth.  We need to be taught to do God's will.  Our natural man will not automatically do God's will of its own accord. Our natural selves are very selfish, very prideful and not at all prone to God's will.  We need to be taught to do God's will. He is OUR GOD. His SPIRIT is GOOD. We will be led into the land of uprightness, and that land is God's.  We need to be quickened, we need our spirit to come alive, to be born again in the Holy Spirit, born again as Jesus told Nicodemus.  We need God's quickening, for His name's sake, for HIS righteousness' sake we need to be brought out of trouble.  Of our own accord we cannot hope, it's only by hoping in Christ that we can live in Him.   It's through HIS righteousness we have hope, not of our own righteousness. Please GOD, please FATHER, please teach us to do Your will! Please, bring us out of the trouble that life has for us around every turn. Please, Father, bless us, keep us, save us all in the name of Your only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord, our Savior!
