Proverbs 16:9 

The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.

Psalm 32:8-9 

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you. Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed with bit and bridle, or it will not stay near you.

There is nothing as sweet as enjoying guidance and direction from God Himself, the maker of heaven and earth who created everyone and knows everyone and everywhere. Guidance and direction from God take away confusion, fear, loss, embarrassment, etc. I don’t know of any life that has zero stress like a life that’s guided and directed by God. 

When God guides and directs you, you will not:

1. Do the wrong job;
2. Marry the wrong person;
3. Travel to the wrong country, or relocate to the wrong state; 
4. Invest you money in the wrong business;
5. Move with destiny destroyers and glory sinkers;
6. Walk into danger or evil; 
7. Rent the wrong house; or
8. Go to the wrong place at the wrong time or go to the right place at the wrong time; 

Simply put, as long as you listen to God, remain calm and patient, and never try to be stubborn, when God is guiding and giving you directions, you can never make a mistake, be a failure, suffer, die an avoidable death, or end in destruction. 

In different Bible verses, God promised over and over again that He will guide and direct us. He even begged us not to think we are wise enough to direct and lead ourselves. Our understanding of the world and what we know about is little or zero. Why do we think we can lead, guide and direct ourselves perfectly. 

According to how God planned it, we Christians are never supposed to unnecessarily suffer some of things that non-Christians suffer. But there are many reasons why we suffer unnecessarily as Christians. 

4 Main Reasons why Christians Suffer Unnecessarily

1. They think they are experienced and well-educates enough to direct and guide themselves. So, they leave God out of the process of making decisions, thinking to themselves that it’s unnecessary to consult God since they are educated, experienced or since they can go for professional advice from fellow humans. 
2. Christians Suffer unnecessarily because of stubbornness. Many Christians who have gotten direction and guidance from God will still intentionally refuse to accept the guidance/direction because it doesn’t fit their own plan or because it will restrain their sinful pleasures and works of the flesh. For example, even if God directs or guides some Christians who love to go to club or the beach, not to go, they will still go. They don’t care what will happen. They just can’t miss that moment of enjoyment for anything. Many people have died untimely death and fallen into serious traps they no longer can get out of because they refused to listen to God when He was guiding them. 
3. Christians also suffer unnecessarily because they don’t know how to hear from God or because they have never even asked Him for guidance and direction. 
4. They believe the world, its philosophy, culture, teachings and ideas, more than they believe the Word of God and God Himself. 

How To Get Divine Guidance and Direction

1. Learn how to hear from   God. Search the scriptures seriously and listen to and analyze hundreds of genuine Holy Ghost-inspired sermons. 
2. Pray. This one needs no explanation
3. Let your walk with God be pure and consistent. 

Some Of The Ways In Which Divine Guidance And Direction Works

Someone might ask: how does divine guidance works? How do I know I am being guided God and not by an unclean power? Here are the answers. 

1. God can guide and direct you through clear instructions from dreams and visions. 
2. God can guide and direct you when you are reading the Bible. 
3. Divine direction and guidance can also come from men of God and prophets. God will specially send them to you. 
4. God can also send angels to you who will appear as normal humans
5. You can also hear a clear, loud voice in your spirit. The communication of the voice will usually be followed by scriptural proof or a confirmation from the Holy Ghost, so you can be sure it was God who was talking to you.

God is an unlimited God. His ways are diverse. The   5-item list above is just some of the uncountable number of ways He guides and directs His beloved children. People receive divine guidance and direction through several other methods not listed above. I think the most important thing is to have a cordial relationship with God and remain effectively alert in the spirit so you can know when God is guiding and directing you.
