When confusion comes your way, it's a wake-up call. Confusion is more than thoughts of the mind. It is a spiritual problem. "For God is not the author of confusion but of peace" (1 Corinthians 14:33). Peace and confusion can never live together. Confusion robs us of God's peace. It's time for a change of mind. The Bible calls it repentance. Confusion must be confronted.
Confront confusion with the truth of God. It's time to search the Bible on the subject of confusion. Understanding is needed to know God's will. Peace returns to all who know God's will and do it. Confusion never walks with peace. They are strangers to each other. Peace bears witness to the truth. "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts" (Colossians 3:15).
Confusion will not listen to the truth. It stubbornly goes its own way. Peace confirms God's will for your life. God leads us through the Holy Spirit working in our hearts. "But the fruit of the Spirit is . . . peace" (Galatians 5:22). Confusion is proof that we have missed God's will.
Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you with understanding. "When He the Spirit of truth has come, He will guide you into all truth" (John 16:13). The Holy Spirit will drive out confusion with truth. The guidance of God's Spirit removes all confusion, and you will know it through the peace of mind He gives. When confusion comes, trust the Holy Spirit to guide you.
