In a furiously fast turn of events, Pharaoh set the Hebrew people free. Centuries of slavery in Egypt were behind them; a new future was ahead of them. The promised land beckoned. Yet on their own they stood no chance of survival. For that reason, “The Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire” (Exodus 13:21 NIV).

Can you imagine the blessing of this divine GPS? On any given day God told them where to go. We can thank Isaiah the prophet for telling us the name of the force within the cloud and fire. “Who is he who set his Holy Spirit among them…” (Isaiah 63:11 NIV).

Who led the ex-slaves through the wilderness? The Holy Spirit. Who leads the children of God today? The Holy Spirit!

Dr. Jeff Myers talks about a time he encouraged his son, who was having trouble sleeping.

This is the age of much know-how and very little know-why.  The invisible enemy of sin and secularism has left us dazed and bewildered.  In the midst of the wreckage sits God’s intended rescue center, the church.  We each have responsibilities, and when we work together, the displaced find a place.  And, behind it all, overseeing the operation is the Holy Spirit.

And he does this through the distribution of gifts.  “…All [spiritual gifts] are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines” (1 Corinthians 12:11 NIV).

The Holy Spirit is the ultimate gift giver.  He garnishes his children with supernatural abilities that glorify God, bless the needy, and edify the church.  Would it not be a tragedy to miss out on your unique-to-you assignment?

According to God’s plan life is a series of decisions. Do I move or stay? Hold on or let go? Tie the knot or not? Small decisions. Large decisions. Decisions everywhere! We make our choices, and they make us. Consequently, decision-making saps energy and creates anxiety. What if I make the wrong choice?

So what can we do? Given the weightiness of choices, how can we make good ones? You will be encouraged by the promise of Scripture. We can be led by the Holy Spirit: “He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake” (Psalm 23:3 ESV). God, our Good Shepherd, doesn’t just feed us; he leads us. He does more than correct us; he directs us. He keeps us on the right track. He has commissioned the Holy Spirit to guide us down the winding roads of life.
