God guides you in the paths of righteousness. Though
God does this for His name’s sake, the benefits are amazing. A person guided by
God in the paths of righteousness will not walk in and experience filth, be it
spiritual, physical, mental filth. Why? Righteousness and filth do not go
together therefore filth that leads to pollution, condemnation, stagnation and
untimely death will not be in the pathway of righteousness that God leads a person
in.
Secondly, the paths of righteousness are the paths
of God and the paths of God always drop fatness that lead to abundance. Who
would not desire such a path? Please see Psalm 65 verses 9 to 13, Isaiah
Chapter 48 verses 17 to 19, and Psalm 81 verses 13 to 16. Peter was divinely
guided to abundance when he launched out into the deep; and also cast his net
on the right side. Isaac became wealthy when he obeyed God and followed the
divine guidance to plant in Gerar. Please see Genesis Chapter 26 for details.
God asked Abraham to detach himself from his
father’s house. That way he could be blessed. It could be relationships, habits
and lifestyles that do not give glory to God that God wants you to detach
yourself from. Immediately Abraham stepped out, God visited Abraham and blessed
him. Age is no barrier to what God wants to do in your life. God is faithful.
He keeps everyone of His promises. He does not need help from anyone to bless
you. He is God Almighty and has more than enough resources to accomplish what
He promised to do in your life.
Israel has very little in terms of land mass and
population compared to some countries with very large land mass and
populations. Yet, Israel remains a force to be reckoned with by world powers
because of the faithful promises made by God to Abraham (Genesis Chapter 12
verses 1 to 3, 22 verses 17 to 18). The nation and people of Israel enjoy
tremendous blessings from God not on the basis of landmass, natural resources
but because of the faithfulness of God to Abraham who chose the paths of divine
guidance.
Divine guidance also guarantees victory and safety
from the enemy. Please see Psalm 81 verse 13 to 16, Joshua Chapter 6, Judges
Chapter 7, 1st Samuel Chapter 30, 2nd Samuel Chapter 5
verses 18 to 25. Joshua was divinely instructed to walk around the walls of
Jericho for seven days before giving the victory chant that brought down the
intimidating walls of Jericho that barricaded the Israelites from further
progress to Canaan. Immediately the walls came down, they made progress on
their journey. Joseph, the earthly father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
obeyed the divine instructions he received in his dream and quickly took Jesus
to safety in Egypt.
Divine guidance brings healing. Please see Isaiah
Chapter 38 where King Hezekiah was divinely instructed to apply a poultice on
the boils that threatened his life. General Naaman was instructed to go dip in
the Jordan seven times and thereafter he was cleansed of the leprosy on him.
Please see 2nd Kings Chapter 5.
Divine guidance is a panacea for wandering as divine
guidance guarantees divine direction and divine settlement. Please see Psalm
107 verses 1 to 7, John Chapter 16 verse 13.
Stop trying to help God. Simply step out in faith in
obedience to what God says. Please see Genesis Chapter 12, 15.
