Chris.
The
Lord clearly tells us in His Word that He wants to guide us. His Guidance in
not spurious or mystical. His Guidance is very clear to all those people whose
lives are right with Him. If there is some barrier in our heart between
ourselves and God, such as sin, unbelief or some kind of deception in our
belief system, the only Guidance that God will give to us is to get rid of the
barrier. Let us obey God and thus experience His Guidance.
