The Daily Guide
Teach me, Lord
When He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth.
John 16:13 - NKJV
God delights in communicating to you His counsel and His will for you. An old evangelist used to say, "God's Spirit is always broadcasting. You just need to tune in." The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth. He guides you into all truth.
Every time you meditate on God's Word ask to be led and taught by God's Spirit. At your invitation the Holy Spirit transforms the Bible from a confusing mass of declarations and stories into a revelation of God's plan and purpose. King David the psalmist was a man of God who was in the habit of looking to the Lord to be taught by Him. He would pray, "Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me." The apostle Paul likewise was a man who was taught of God and in God's Word by God's Spirit he saw God's plan revealed. Every time you study God's Word you have an opportunity to know the Spirit's teaching and guidance. Psa.27:11.
As a born again, Spirit-filled believer, God's Spirit lives in you and speaks in your heart. Be open and sensitive to Him He will teach and guide you. Give Him your attention and you can experience the Holy Spirit's leading and teaching. The most everyday way - the every moment way - God communicates with His people is by the voice of His Spirit in the quiet of their hearts. You have to learn to attend to that still, small voice of God's Spirit. May you know the Holy Spirit intimating the things of God to you in the quiet of your heart. Mat.10:20.
Give God space to communicate in your heart
