Where do I go and what do I do? “The Lord is my Shepherd [to feed, guide, and shield me], I shall not lack.” – Psalms 23:1 AMP “But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I have told you.” – John 14:26 AMP
Our Shepherd guides us. Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to live in us, to help us, strengthen us and guide us. He can show us things to come because He lives in eternity. The direction that we are in need of; God has. He knows His will for our lives and is able to get that over to us by His Spirit that lives in us.
When we get “turned around” or “lost” in a place that we have never been before we look for someone that knows that area to help us get back on the road that we need to be on. (Nowadays we have GPS devices that help us) We need to be on the right road to end up where the Lord wants us when He wants us there. The Holy Spirit is the One that gives us our direction! As we seek the Lord and wait on Him He speaks to us and leads us to that place and shows us the next step to take. We have the direction that we need through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
