Does the idea of discovering “God’s will” confuse, terrify, bore, or excite you? Is there even such a thing as divine direction? If so, how can we recognize it?
Seven principles from the example of Nehemiah enable us to make good judgments about whether we’re hearing God’s divine direction, our own desires masquerading as God’s will, or something else.
I unpack:
• Hearing accurately is a learned skill
• Taking circumstances outside our control into account
• Having a lifestyle of integrity and obedience
• Outcome for others includes leading to obedience and blessing
• Focusing on our responsibility, not others
• Tied to a lifestyle of seeking God
• It’s not for every decision we make
Just because someone says, “God said …” doesn’t make it so. Grow your discernment in hearing, recognizing, and applying God’s divine direction.
