Week 2 – Discernment

Saturday, Day 11 – Confidence in God’s Leading

Scripture: Isaiah 30:21; Proverbs 3:5–6

Today, we focus on walking confidently in God’s guidance. Isaiah 30:21 reminds us: “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” Confidence in God’s leading comes from a combination of trust, obedience, and attentiveness to His Spirit.

After a week of surrender, self-examination, and unity, it is natural to desire assurance before taking further steps. Confidence does not come from our own insight, financial ability, or persuasion—it comes from aligning our hearts with God’s Word, seeking His counsel in prayer, and patiently listening for His voice. The more we practice discernment, the more natural it becomes to recognize His confirmations, nudges, and peace.

Walking with confidence does not eliminate challenges, but it changes our perspective. Obstacles are no longer reasons to panic—they are opportunities for God to demonstrate His provision and faithfulness. Decisions about a ministry property—finances, leases, renovations—require careful consideration, yet the Spirit will guide us in each step if we are attentive.

Confidence in God’s leading also encourages others. As leaders and congregants observe faithful obedience, trust in God’s guidance becomes contagious. A church moving forward in clarity and assurance will inspire faith, unity, and cooperation among its members, reinforcing the Kingdom purpose of the property being sought.

Reflection/Application:

  • Reflect on areas where you feel uncertain or hesitant. Ask God for clarity and assurance.
  • Recall moments this week when peace, unity, or confirmation indicated His guidance.
  • Declare your trust in God’s leading for the ministry property, even when the path is not fully visible.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for guiding us. Give us confidence to follow Your leading in every decision regarding this ministry property. Open our ears to hear Your voice, align our hearts with Your will, and grant us courage to walk faithfully on the path You have set before us. May we act with obedience, trust, and joy, knowing You are directing our steps. Amen.
