Someone wisely wrote, 'The Bible does not teach that the Holy Spirit seeks to perceptibly direct the believer to an 'ideal' will through inward impulses and outward signs.' In seeking God's guidance, it is important that the Christian understand this point.
God does guide His children. But he does this through the means of biblical illumination and understanding; and by application, prayer, seeking wise counsel and through providential outworking.
Seeking God's will through means outside the Bible is dangerous. Dr. Alvin Baker explains, 'This view tends to separate the believer from the Word. Saints become dependent on intuition, feelings and impressions; mysticism soon reigns supremely; objective revelation [Scripture] is violated in the name of 'leading.''
God has faithfully provided the means for our guidance and to understand His will. We must be careful how we approach these important topics.
