He guides the humble in what is right, and teaches them His way.
Psalms 25:9
Guidance is a word that communicates something for which we often ask. For example “I need God’s guidance for me to find a spouse…how to do my business…, etc. Good guidance is when we expect the Spirit of God to take full charge in us and when we listen and discern to what the Spirit is saying.
Whether you turn to the right or to the left your ears will hear a voice behind you saying “…this is the way, walk in it.”
Isaiah 30:21
And when He brings out His own sheep, He goes before them; and the sheep follow Him, for they know His voice.
John 10:4
There are times we seek God’s guidance even though we have already made mistakes in some of our choices. Before doing anything or embarking on any project we should seek God’s guidance.
When we allow God to guide us:
He will watch over us so that nothing comes against our plans and the plans of God and that the will of God on us will be accomplished. We shall have good success.
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you and watch over you.
Psalm 32:8
He will be our God forever and ever.
…for this God is our God for ever and ever He will be our guide even to the end.
Psalm 48:14
We shall be walking in prosperity all the days of our lives.
The Lord bless you from Zion,
And may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
Psalm 128:5
He will take us into glory.
You will guide me with Your counsel and afterwards You will take me into glory.
Psalm 73:24
He will guide our path.
I will lead the blind ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them.
Isaiah 42:16
(also Isaiah 48:17, Luke 1:79)
He will guide us in all truth.
But when the Spirit of truth comes He will guide you in all truth. He will not speak of His own, He will speak only what He hears and He will tell you what is yet to come.
John 16:13
So, where do we get this guidance? Joshua 1:8 tells us… “in the word of God.”
Do not let this book of the law depart from your mouth meditate on it day and night
so that you may be careful to do everything written in it.
THEN and I say THEN you will be prosperous and successful. (NIV)
(…In KJV the successfulness is connoted as having “good success”.)
Let us make a choice of involving God in everything we do, and seeking His guidance. And also make sure we are guided by the Spirit of God through the Word of God. I know we all need good success. May God help us!
