Every great journey begins with knowing whose voice you’re following.
Today, Pastor Nkem began a new teaching series, “Tuning In,” reminding us that one of the greatest gifts God has given the believer is the privilege of being led by Him.
Here are some of the key truths we learned:
📖 (Joshua 3:4) Divine guidance is essential for every believer. To succeed on the earth, we must learn to hear, recognize, and follow the voice of God.
God designed every detail of our lives. Every season has already been accounted for in His plan. Living by human wisdom alone is pride; when God leads, our response should be obedience.
Why do we need the guidance of the Holy Spirit? 🤔
✔️ To discern direction. In these last days, we need the Holy Spirit to recognize truth and avoid deception. (2 Corinthians 11:14, 1 John 2:20)
✔️ For the specifics of our lives. God is interested in the details, not just the destination. (1 Corinthians 2:9)
✔️ For the specifics of faith. Many people struggle in faith because they fail to recognize God’s voice and act on it. God will not outsource His leading through prophets.
Pastor Nkem also taught that God primarily leads us through the inward witness. The challenge isn’t that God is silent; the challenge is that many believers are not tuned in. We tune in by trusting Him and acknowledging Him. (Proverbs 3:5)
Good intentions are not the same as divine direction. Just because something looks good doesn’t mean it is God’s will.
God leads us first in our spirits. Because He lives in us, the guidance we seek is already within us. ✍🏽🎤
Learning to be led by God requires a growing relationship with Him and a strong spirit.
In closing, we were reminded that there is the voice of the body and there is the voice of the spirit—our conscience. To hear the Lord clearly, we must learn to discern these voices as He speaks through knowings, thoughts, and inner nudges.
