Direction without doubting

1. God is willing to speak to us as clearly as is necessary if we are willing to do what He says do.

Psalm 25:2 - Who, then, are those who fear the LORD? He will instruct them in the ways they should choose.

God will instruct the man that reverences God. 
- Clear the pathway
   - Clear your heart of any known sin or disobedience
   - Bring your desires to a point of neutral
      - Submit your will
      - God, this is what I want but your will be done
- Exercise patience
   - Willing to submit to God's timing
- Be alert to pressure
   - External pressure
   - Internal pressure
(Consequences always follows decisions)
- Persist in our prayer
   - God softens our hearts
   - Sometimes he has to deal with something in our heart
- Rest in God's promises
   - Look at God's promises about prayer
   - Read Psalms and Proverbs
   - Ask God to speak to your heart
   - God is there something here you want to say to me?

When God gives your peace, there is nothing like it.  When God directs you, you have peace.
