The discipline of seeking guidance

The discipline of seeking guidance goes to the heart of walking with God. Guidance involves us hearing God's voice and obeying Him. It is not only seeking His will in a specific matter, but it is a constant way of life.                                                                                                                                                                               God provides guidance to His people in two ways. One is individual guidance, where God gives each of His children divine instruction through Scripture, reason, circumstances, and through prompting of the Spirit in the individual's heart. In corporate guidance, God guides groups of people who gather in fellowship to seek the will of God. Both aspects are important to submit to as we seek to live in response to the voice of God.
