Just A Thought: We Need Guidance!

Imagine a ship in the ocean, on a journey to a specified destination but without a compass, can it get there? No and Yes. Technically, it can't get there (mostly) but lets say it can eventually get there; however, it will take a lot of time and effort for it to eventually get there and even to know where it is positioned at that point in time.
The same applies with our lives, there is that person that should be 'your compass', that's the person who has gone an extra mile and has already possessed the knowledge and the revelation that is merely still a goal/vision to you. That 'compass' is the leader and guide in your life, if you don't pay attention to 'IT' you will get lost. That is why the Holy Spirit came,we need guidance, we would not be able to fellowship with God the Father and The Son without HIM. We would not relate nje at all. This 'Compass' in your life must be filled with the Spirit of God, ‘loaded’ with the Word of God i.e someone who is DOING the WORD. He/she must have a trained Spirit 'trained by God through The Word and The Holy Spirit. He/she must have seen and experienced what is still a dream and a vision to you, then that experience and revelation is imparted into your life as Wisdom, and it becomes your guide. Life is Spiritual, if 'your compass' cannot discern spiritual things,he/she can't teach you to discern spiritual things. Then you'll have No life because Life is Spiritual. God is Spirit John 4 vs 4. In Proverbs 4 vs 3-4, King Solomon says "3. For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother. 4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live." So King Solomon had a Role Model/Compass who was His Father David. He was trained and disciplined by his father, and “only beloved in sight of my mother” meaning that her mother was tender with him.
Who is that Compass in your life, you need to have ONE. That one person who has been through IT, who has been tested and has proven/worked the Word of God, that person who has acted in faith and obtained great results or records, that person who has achieved what most people only get to dream about, that's person who has become aware of who He/she is in Christ and is in possession of the total package of salvation. We have so many Role Models in the Bible, from Papa Abraham, David,...The Lord Jesus Christ, Apostle Paul and all the Apostles, etc. In this 'age', each one of us has to have a role model or leader, and God has placed those people in our lives for this reason, that they become the 'Compass' that inspires us to get to the specified destination. Without the compass, you can get there but it might take you forever to get there because you will surely get lost. Who is your Role Model/Compass/Coach in this life? Get to know him/her, get to know what drives him/her, how he/she lives, identify yourself with that person, etc. Listen to their instruction, and then you'll get direction. If you don't listen to the instruction, you are bound to fall into destruction. Have a great weekend!!
