(Providence)Holy Spirit guidance through messengers, both spiritual and human.Today, we will focus on God’s peace and presence in our lives to direct our paths.
Isaiah 55:12 says, “For you shall go out with joy, and be led out with peace...” Of all the ways in which the Holy Spirit guides us, one aspect should always be present: the peace of God. God is not the author of confusion, fear, anxiety, or desperation (1 Cor 14:33). He is the God of peace because nothing is impossible with Him. God never gets nervous or anxious, and because we are in His hands, neither should we. “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful” (Col 3:15). In other words, let the peace of God be a primary influence that tells you when to take action or not to take action.
