I want to be able to click on a style and have standard language appear in my
document automatically. For instance, if I create a style called
"Instruction" and I choose that style, I might want "PLEASE FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS: " to appear in my document. I don't want to have to type or
copy/paste them each time. Is this possible?

You don't. What you do is create either an AutoText or a formatted
AutoCorrect that includes both the text and the desired style/formatting.

To a very limited extent you can create a style that includes text: if you
apply "numbering" to a style, you can specify a small amount of text to
precede/follow the number, and you can set the "number style" to "(none)."
But the amount of text permitted is quite limited.
