F.E. Marsh :: 209. Inquiring—Directed

To inquire of the Lord is to be directed by Him (2 Sam. 2:1). The following seven links in the golden chain of the spiritual life are always connected, namely:—

  1. Faith in the Lord (John 3:16).
  2. Dependence on the Lord (Psalm 37:7).
  3. Walking with the Lord (Mal. 2:6).
  4. Inquiry of the Lord (Psalm 27:14).
  5. Direction by the Lord (Acts 13:2).
  6. Blessing from the Lord (Deut. 33:20).
  7. Glory to the Lord (1 Cor. 10:31).

The blessing of the Lord’s guidance always comes along the lines of prayer and obedience. Self acts upon its own authority, and is discomfited, as was Balaam (Numbers 22:22-35), but faith goes at God’s bidding, and is delivered (Exodus 14:15).
