How do we know God is guiding us?

In this sermon, it's emphasized that being led by the Lord means actively following Him and being attuned to His guidance in our lives. Just as the Israelites followed the cloud by day and fire by night, Christians are called to seek God's direction in their daily lives. This includes prayerfully considering circumstances, engaging with Scripture, and being sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. The history of God's people shows that He leads us on unique paths tailored to refine our character and deepen our faith. When we look back over our lives, we should see evidence of God's faithfulness and direction. If we recognize that we have been following His guidance, we can trust that He will continue to lead us.
