Deut 32:9-15, 1 Cor 10:13
• It doesn’t matter where you are and what you are facing, if you can have direction you can get out of that situation.
• No matter what you are facing, there is always a way out.
• Don’t try to magnify your problem.
• Don’t try to say, “I have a special challenge.”
• Only one who has all knowledge can know the way out of any challenge and that is God.
• If you are facing problems and you are drifting away from God, you will have those problems for a long time.
• Wherever there is leading there is instruction.
• Because you can be led and instructed, you will be preserved.
• God is involved in wherever He is leading you.
• Nothing will crush you where God is leading you because that thing will have to crush God first.
• In our journey of destiny there are enemies and giants on the way.
• If we are not led, we will be crushed.
• A marriage that is from God can still crash along the way if God is not involved.
• Even what is of God needs security along the way.
• Divine guidance secures destiny.
• If things don’t seem to be working, it could be that there is an instruction that needs to come, so ask God. If the instruction has come but things still aren’t working, then you are not carrying it out.

• God didn’t wire us to be looking after ourselves, we were supposed to be dependent on Him.

• Make sure that what you are calling “my plan” is actually God’s plan.
