GUIDANCE

GOD WILL DIRECT OUR LIVES. HE WILL LEAD US. THIS APPLIES IN BOTH OUR MAJOR AND MINOR LIFE DECISIONS. GOD TELLS US THAT WE CAN COME TO HIM WITH EVERY CHOICE THAT IS OURS AND LET OUR REQUESTS BE MADE KNOWN (PHILIPPIANS 4: 5, 6 ) GOD KNOWS WHAT IS BEST FOR US. WE CANNOT ALWAYS RELY ON OUR OWN UNDERSTANDING.

THE SPIRIT OF GOD WILL GREATLY LEAD US. IF WE FEEL A COERCION OR UNDUE PRESSURE IN SOME AREA, IT IS WISE TO WAIT ON THE LORD. HE WILL PREPARE THE WAY AND OPEN THE DOORS. OF COURSE WE CAN BE HINDERED BY SATAN IN DOING GOD’S WILL, AND WE NEED TO RECOGNIZE THAT AND TAKE AUTHORITY AND DOMINION OVER THE FORCES OF THE ENEMY.

WE KNOW THAT THE LORD WILL LEAD AND WORK THINGS OUT AS WE TRUST HIM. PROVERBS 3: 5, 6
