Jesus said, “… if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.” That means that as a leader, having a vision prevents you from living a careless life. Secondly, as a follower, who you follow affects the direction your life will take.
God will hardly tell you the details of how to fulfil the ideas He inspires your heart with. Do you know why? It’s because He is the director of your steps to the vision. That is why you don’t need to worry about the “how” behind the purposes of God concerning your life. He will direct you there. So fret not!
As a believer in ministerial training, you must allow able ministers to guide you. It’s not everything you’ll know how to do when you are under training. So, the guidance of experienced ministers can help you avoid many mistakes. Don’t be proud; be subject to godly correction.
You train your spiritual eye to see by beholding God’s Word in all that you do. That is why consistent study of the scriptures, coupled with prayer and fasting, is essential in your life as a believer.
You must labour to have a healthy spiritual eye. But how? By investing in knowing God intimately every single day. Prioritise prayer, Word study, fasting and going to church regularly. Doing these consistently will illuminate your spirit with Christ, and your life will follow the direction of God’s purposes.
Your life is not a football to get tossed to and fro by the suggestions and directions of men, of which several of them live confused. Seek to know God’s will and follow suit. It will help you.
Living with the future in mind or knowing what is yet to happen in your life or on Earth is not merely for prophets. It is for every believer.
Just as a lighthouse guides ships safely through stormy seas, God’s Word illuminates our path and orders our steps with divine clarity (see Psalm 119:105). You must pray until you get direction from God whenever you get stuck.
Don’t lose your hope in God, even if life seems tough for you. Learn to follow Him because He won’t fail you.
God knows the end from the beginning. If He tells you to rest and to wait patiently for Him, He is trying to save you from encountering trouble you could have avoided. Never think you’re wiser than God. Stay humble and live being guided by His direction.
Jesus is the solution for all manner of confusion. He said in John 10:27 that His sheep hear His voice and that He knows them, and they follow Him. So, in short, Jesus is salvation for confused people. When you become His sheep and you spend time building intimacy with Him, you will know His voice clearly without doubts.
Jesus said the blind cannot lead the blind, or else they’ll fall into a ditch. That is a very essential statement in leadership. It implies that as a leader, you must be ahead of your followers, both in thoughts and in steps.
