PILLARS OF DIVINE GUIDANCE

Part Two


The following are the actual Pillars of Divine Guidance. If you consider building God’s vision for your life by these pillars, you will surely succeed in life. They are pillars that enhance effective direction of God’s divine program.

• Do you need direction for your life?
• Do you want to be sure that God is in what you are doing?
• Are you confused about the next step to take?
• Do you want the leading light of the voice of God to guide you in all your ways?

If your answer is YES to any of the above questions, I will like you to take a close look at the following pillars of divine guidance. You will therefore discover the secrets of God which enhance effective transition in your life’s purpose for great results.


• The Word of God. Psalm 119:105

The Word of God is the most powerful pillar of divine guidance. If you anchor your life with the dictates of the living word of God, it will light your entire path and remove all limitations. If you really want God’s Will to be very clear to you, go to His word and find out. Your destiny, I believe is buried in the living word of God. Your next step in life towards your purpose will not fail in Jesus Mighty Name. I pray the light of His word will continue to shine on your path for you to see the glory of God in your life. Search the word daily to find out what God is saying concerning your life, and when you discover it follow it with all your heart.

• The Holy Spirit. Romans 8:14

When you draw close to the Holy Spirit in prayer, He will lead you in all your ways and bring you to great success.

• Dreams and Visions. Genesis 15:1, 1 Samuel 3:2-15, Genesis 46:2

The next Pillar of divine guidance is dreams and visions. Great men like Abraham, Isaac and Samuel followed the direction of God for their lives to fulfill their destiny. Sometimes when God want’s to move in your life in order to bring direction to you, He does it through prophetic dreams and visions.

• Enquiries. I Samuel 23:1-5, Job 4:13-16

The pillar of enquiries is the place where you go to God in prayer to receive His divine blue print regarding an issue in your life. It is the place of asking God to show you the right way especially when you do not know what to do.

• The Prophet. Hosea 12:10

The prophet of God is a divine agent of God on the earth to reveal the secrets of God to His people. A true prophet of God can bring divine direction into your life. In the Old Testament, another name for the prophet was the seer. The prophet sees into the spirit realm to unlock mysteries of the kingdom, to bring guidance to God’s people.

• Counsel. Proverbs 11:14, Proverbs 15:22

God can place people into your life at different times for the sole purpose of bringing divine counsel into your life. Open your eyes to locate the people God has placed around you. Your ability to deal wisely with your counselors will determine how you will receive God’s direction through them.

All of the above pillars of divine guidance can be used at all times to determine the way of the Lord for your life.
