Our God given navigation system

6/9/2013

Do you enjoy the satellite navigation system in your car?

 Satellite navigation systems have the  capability to show us  trouble traffic spots so we can avoid them. The Stat  Nav helps us foresee trouble and gives us the choice to avoid traffic and  problems on our journeys.

  As we journey through life, there are many decisions that need to be  made. Who do l marry? What job should l take? Which church should l attend? I  know the Lord has called me, but when do l step out? Which school should l let  my children attend? and many other issues. Taking the wrong turn in any of these  areas can cause us many problems. 
As children of God we have our own spiritual navigation system that helps us  avoid trouble and problems in these areas.  The reality is that no one has  passed this road before and we need help.  Just as the satellite navigation system helps us in our road journeys, so has the Lord given us our own spiritual  navigation system to help in our journey of life.

 Proverbs 22: 3 says, a prudent man  foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are  punished. So how do we foresee evil or the wrong way to go as children of  God.


Lets have a look at some of our navigation systems:


The word of  God:

 Psalm 119:105  Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.


Wise counsel

 Proverbs 11:14b   in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.


By listening to the Holy  Spirit given to us

 John 16: 13, Howbeit when he, the  Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not  speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. 

We need to obey those promptings we receive in our spirits and obey them.


By asking the Lord for direction and trusting Him 

Proverbs 3:5-6  Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean  not unto thine own understanding.  In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.  


We do not need to get stuck in the issues of life once we engage our  spiritual navigation systems.


Lets take advantage of what the Lord has given us to navigate safely through life.

Amen Bisi, thanks for this post, very much needed.
All three are so important and I've had to learn that as well, unfortunately the hard way, but it shows that God has our best interests as heart and wants us to be guided by Him for He knows what is to come. He loves His children very much!
Thanks for posting!

What an appropriate post for me today! When we have new choices before us and want to walk in the perfect will of God, I am once again reminded of God's Word being a light to our path and to trust Him with all our heart and allow Him to lead us in the way He wants for us to go. Off now to engage my spiritual navigation system...

Thanks for sharing. Knowing what is God's assignment for us is important so we keep focus... Just to add to your list of verses given above is Jeremiah 29:11. Shalom.
