How God Guides Us

God guides us all along life's journey. Problems arise as we encounter difficulty. We can be overwhelmed by problems. We don't have all the answers. Help is needed. Who is our counselor? The psalmist said to God, You guide me with Your counsel (Psalm 73:24). We need wise counsel from God.

God guides us through the Bible. God has a unique way of bringing a verse from the Bible at just the right time to encourage and strengthen our faith. He may use another person to deliver the word of faith to us. It could be a word of wisdom or a word of knowledge. A word from God builds our faith and directs our path.

God guides us through prayer. God's wise counsel always brings peace. Many thoughts may come to our hearts, but not all of those thoughts bring peace. God's thoughts are always identified with peace. And let the peace of God rule in your heart (Philippians 3:15).

God's guidance is available for us now. God is with us everyday and everywhere. We confront no life situation without His presence. Take heed to words from the Bible that come to mind. Those words are from God's Spirit. He speaks to our hearts with words of wisdom and truth. God always guides us with peace in our hearts.
