HEED GOD’S VOICE FOR DIRECTION

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord and he delighted in his ways.” Psalm 37:23 (KJV)
Every believer has been made righteous by faith through Christ. So, your steps are now being ordered and you will not stumble in your walk. Your walk is firm, stable, and secured. The book of Jeremiah 10:23 declares: “O Lord, I know that the way of a man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps”(KJV). This is a powerful scripture! It reveals the fact that God leads you. You are not walking blindly! You are not walking into problems and difficulties because He is leading you. No trial and error! You invest in the wrong place and have challenges in your marriage all because you are not following the light of the word that gives you clarity.
According to the book of Isaiah 30: 21: “And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, this is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.” God will always speak into your spirit. Your ear shall hear a word behind you saying this is the way! This is where to put your money! this is how to avoid replying when the enemy is speaking! oh there is this challenge but don’t say anything, just chill and let me handle it. God will begin to tell you this is the way, walk ye in it.
“Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.”(Isaiah 48:17 KJV). So, if He is the one that teaches us, why are you involved in every other thing and not interested in what He has said? Why are you making the bible a second-hand book that you consult after every other thing? Your victory is in the Word. I want to assure you that as you continue to stay in the word of God, there is no way you will be confused.
