THE NOBLE TEACHER TEXT: PSALM 18:29-50 Key verse: “He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms” (Psalm 18:34). Amongst the professions, teaching stands out as one of the least appreciated. Yet, it is the one profession that gives the background and strong pedestal upon which other professions are laid. The gains of teaching to every student, especially in the lower classes are almost imperceptible. They invariably turn out to provide the wherewithal through which the students becomes accomplished in their future endeavour. This experience is similar to what every child of God undergoes in the tutorial room of the Almighty. God often teaches directly or indirectly through His word, visions, revelation and divinely ordained providence. It usually turns out that God’s systematic teaching almost invariably provides the means through which children of God overcome in daunting and trying circumstances of life. David, for instance, affirms in this Psalm, the Almighty that teaches his hands to war, and that his exceptional swiftness is caused by the God of power who makes him overcome all obstacles. We can of ourselves do nothing. Enemies will prevail over us were God not to be our refuge and strength. It is time we began to ascribe our talents and gifts unto the Lord and that with immense gratitude. Let the prosperous child of God know that of himself he could do nothing. We achieve excellence and greatness through God, for it is He, Who works in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure. God can teach your hands to war. Do you have a responsibility in the kingdom work and you always feel inadequate? It is time you depend on God who can make you mount up like an eagle over all walls with that mustard seed of faith in your heart. It is God that teacheth our hands to war. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: It is the invisible arms that arm the weak against all harms....GOOD MORNING ALL!
