Why is it important for Christians to be instructed by God?

Answered in 1 source

Being instructed by God is essential for spiritual growth and understanding our relationship with Christ.

The importance of divine instruction in a believer's life cannot be overstated. As highlighted in Psalm 32:8, God promises, 'I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go.' This commitment from God signifies His active role in guiding His people towards righteousness and truth. Without such instruction, Christians may struggle to comprehend their identity in Christ and the nature of their salvation. Moreover, instruction helps prevent the believer from relying solely on their understanding, which can lead to spiritual stubbornness. By embracing God's teaching, believers can grow in grace and knowledge, becoming increasingly aware of God's purpose and their role within it.
