Do You Always Make the Right Decisions?

Article written by Brother Bledsoe

These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
John 14:25-26

Question: Do you always make the right decisions? With all the twists and turns through the maze of life, do you always know which way to go? Did you know that if you will sincerely seek the help of the Holy Ghost (Spirit), and if you will do what He directs you to do that you will never make a wrong decision and you will never go in the wrong direction.

How do I know this? First, I have the evidence of the Word of God; which just happens to the best evidence that there is. As you probably know, the Apostle Paul and those who worked with him, were guided by the Holy Spirit to go where they went and at times were not permitted where he wanted to go because the Holy Spirit said no. (See Acts 16:7). Right after Paul was refused permission to go into Asia, God gave him the Macedonian call. There he was used greatly of God to proclaim the gospel.

The Evidence of Experience

Next, I have the evidence of experience. I have at times listened to the Spirit and at times I have overrode His directions—much to my chagrin. There were times when I went when I wasn’t sent and times that I was led to go but didn’t. I know, there have many times when I wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed (still not). However, I don’t have to be. All that I have to do is seek the help of the Holy Spirit and He has, and will always lead me in the right direction. If I don’t know what to say, He will give me the words and if I don’t have the good sense to keep my mouth shut, He will not give me the opportunity to speak.

The Comforter is the Holy Ghost and the Holy Ghost is God. He knows what is best for you and me. Let’s seek His help and He will be there for us. Never ignore Him and in the process of it all, we will be victorious. Amen.

For The Living

He also remembers that His “compassion” fails not.  Compassion is love applied to the hurting rather than sympathy which is feeling sorry but doing nothing about the pain and suffering of others. Faithfulness is always being there and always being true to one’s word.  Over and over again the Word proclaims that God is faithful.  Literally, He never changes so His Word to us never changes—it is always true.

Inheritance Incorruptible

In the midst of troubles and trials because the genuineness of your faith is tested. Peter wrote that even then your faith is more precious than gold even though it is sometimes tested by fire. To whom is your faith precious? Is it not precious to the one who has it and is it not precious to the One who gives it? Is it not above word?
