The Blessedness of Divine Direction

Posted on by The Message Bearer

“Lead me on in Your purpose, lead me on in Your plans Lord…”

There is something special about beginning your day by laying your requests before God. The whole day has a different dimension as you ‘wait expectantly’

Psalms 5:8 TPT
Yahweh, lead me in the pathways of your pleasure just like you promised me you would, or else my enemies will conquer me. Smooth out your road in front of me, straight and level, so that I will know where to walk.

When embarking on a journey the best time to get good directions is before you begin.

Psalm 5:7-8 MSG
And here I am, your invited guest-it’s incredible! I enter your house; here I am, prostrate in your inner sanctum, Waiting for directions to get me safely through enemy lines.

God may give us a general picture of what He wants us to do – but as far as the details are concerned He leads us one step at a time. The life of faith involves following His directions one step at a time.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you [who are willing to learn] with My eye upon you. – Psalm 32:8 AMP

In the journey of life God offers to accompany you and direct you one step at a time into a life of blessing.

If you follow God’s directions for life, you will enjoy his blessing and bring blessing to others.

Prayer:
Lord, help me this year to follow your directions, one step at a time, to live under your blessing, to spread blessing wherever I go and bring as much blessing as I can to everyone around. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen.

Hi, I’m Cornelius Bella. Welcome to My Corner of the Internet. I’m a Christian writer, blogger, and lifelong seeker of Biblical truth. At CorneliusBella.blog, I share reflections, revelations, and real-life stories shaped by faith, rooted in Scripture, and driven by a deep hunger for God’s presence. For me, spirituality isn’t a Sunday activity—it’s the heartbeat of everyday life. I believe God’s presence is not just a theological concept but a living, breathing reality we can experience moment by moment. One of my guiding prayers is this: “May not a single moment of my life be spent outside the light, love, and joy of God’s presence—and not a moment without the entire surrender of myself to Him.” If that resonates with you, you’re in the right place. On my blog, I write about prayer, meditation, surrender, gratitude, and the kind of faith that transforms not just what we believe, but how we live. I explore how spiritual principles can help us navigate pain, find purpose, and live with deeper joy—even in the middle of life’s uncertainties. But more than that, I write to connect. To build a community of believers who are hungry for more of God. Who want to grow, not just in knowledge, but in intimacy with the Holy Spirit. Who are tired of surface-level religion and ready to live from the inside out. So whether you’re wrestling with big questions or just looking for encouragement to keep walking by faith—I’d love for you to join the journey. Subscribe, share your thoughts, and let’s grow together in grace, truth, and the joy of God’s presence. Let’s live fully surrendered. Let’s walk by faith. Let’s seek Him—daily.
