How do we know God's guidance is true?

Believers can be confident in God's guidance when it is consistent with the principles found in Scripture and is illuminated by the Holy Spirit. The Word of God is an infallible rule, and those who approach it with humility and a desire to understand will be able to discern God's will accurately. Often, God's guidance is confirmed through the alignment of one's prayers and circumstances with Scripture, leading to a peace that surpasses understanding. Thus, true guidance reflects God’s character and His promises to His people, ensuring they are not misled.
