God Guides Through Instruction

IWM Devotional: God Guides Through Instruction

Scripture: Psalm 119:105 — “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.”

Psalm 32:8 — “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with my eye.”

Word for Today

Beloved sisters, God’s instructions are precise, purposeful, and life-giving. His Word serves as a lamp, illuminating each step and revealing the path He has designed for you. His Spirit accompanies the Word, offering guidance that is personal, timely, and perfectly aligned with His will.

Consider Gideon (Judges 6-7). Facing an overwhelming enemy with only 300 men, Gideon received clear, detailed instructions from God. Through specific signs and directions, God orchestrated the strategy that would lead to victory. Every movement, every command, every step was guided by the Lord’s instruction — showing that success, protection, and provision flow from faithful obedience to God’s guidance.

Sisters, the principle is timeless, God’s instructions are given to equip, direct, and empower you. Whether through His Word, His Spirit, or precise commands for your season, He provides the clarity needed to walk in alignment with His plan. Following His instructions is not about convenience, it is about trusting His wisdom and responding in obedience, confident that He will lead you exactly where you need to be.
