And sometimes it seems like everything's just mounting up on you. You're having battles from all sides, from your family, from fellow Christians, from just all different types of situation at your work. And sometimes it seems like the battle is never gonna be over. But it's kinda true, the battle is never gonna be over until Christ comes back and fixes everything the way it's supposed to be. So what does that make me think that we need to trust in the Lord to get us through the battles? You see David trusted in the Lord to get him through his battles. He didn't trust in himself. And see, that's why David was a man after God's own heart, because he understood where he stood with God. He understood that he couldn't trust in himself to fight these battles. He couldn't trust in himself to even get his spiritual knowledge. He has to get that from the Lord. We have to get our spiritual knowledge from God himself. And we also have to understand that we need to let God fight the battles for us. And so we just maybe just have to stand and let God fight the battle for us. So look at verse number three. It says, yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed. Let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. And it says, show me thy ways, O Lord, teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, teach me. For thou art the God of my salvation. On thee do I wait all the day. So here's David saying, hey, I'm not going to find the ways myself. I need you to show me the ways, God. I need you to teach me the paths that I need to walk in. I remember not too long ago, I preached about the paths that our dog makes in the backyard. And we have just this little trail where as soon as we open the sliding glass door, they all go, you know, because I always say, where's the kitty? Where's the kitty? And I try to, you know, anyway, I get them all fired up. They've never eaten a cat. So don't worry. But anyway, or where's the squirrel? I'll make a little squirrel noises and then I'll open the door and then they run. But they made this path that goes to the very back of our fence. And, you know, David saying, teach me thy paths. We need to understand that God has a certain path that he wants us to walk into. And a lot of times we take the wrong paths, don't we? As human beings, we take the wrong path and we get caught up in stuff we shouldn't get caught up in. We get into sin and we are get we stray off the path. But we need we need God to keep us on that path. And David understood this concept that we need is that we need him to teach us, him to show us the ways and to keep us on the path. And it says, lead me into thy truth. Whose truth? God's truth, not our truth. You know, sometimes we make our own truth. But, you know, we need to understand that God is the one that has the truth.
