Divine Guidance | Episode 15 | Provisions

Grace & Truth

October 2, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • 1 Kings 17:1–6, Philippians 4:19, 2 Corinthians 13:1, 1 Kings 17

In the fifteenth episode of "Divine Guidance," Duane Sheriff teaches that God's provision is a key to confirming His will for our lives. God confirms His word to us through multiple witnesses, and one of these vital witnesses is provision. 2 Corinthians 13:1 says, "In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established."

God's provisions are signs that confirm His guidance in our lives. One compelling example of provision is the story of Elijah from 1 Kings 17. God instructs Elijah to hide by the Brook Cherith, promising that ravens would provide him with food. Later, God sends Elijah to a widow in Zarephath, who also provides for him miraculously. In both cases, Elijah finds provisions waiting for him, affirming that he is on the right path.

When we obey God's guidance, even when it seems challenging or unclear, His provision will always be ahead of us, just as it was for Elijah. Duane shares how following God's leading has resulted in miraculous provisions in his life. When we're in God's will, He will supply all our needs (Philippians 4:19).

Divine Guidance | Episode 1 | We Are Led

September 12, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • Romans 8:11–17

In the brand new series, "Divine Guidance," Duane Sheriff teaches how God leads us, how God speaks to us, and how to confirm the inner witness of the Lord's leading in your life. How can you differentiate between God speaking, your imagination, or your own desires independent of His will? Nothing is more critical in a believer's life than being led by the Lord, knowing the voice of God, and discerning, recognizing, and obeying His voice. Many grew up in church seeking the Lord but were never taught how to discern the inner witness, the voice of God. This series will help you learn the language of the Holy Spirit. Every kingdom has a language, and the Holy Spirit speaks in a unique, inner way within the Kingdom of God. The decisions we make, influenced by the inner witness of the Holy Spirit, determine the quality of life we will live. Decisions made independently of God's will lead to forms of death, depression, and discouragement.

Divine Guidance | Episode 2 | The Inner Witness

September 13, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • Romans 8:12–14, Ezekiel 36:26, John 16:13

In the second episode of "Divine Guidance," Duane Sheriff teaches how God leads and guides us through our inner spirit. Romans 8:14 states, "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." It is crucial to discern and follow the inner voice of the Holy Spirit. God doesn't just lead us by external circumstances but primarily speaks to us from within. The guidance of the Holy Spirit is like a GPS system, urging us to heed the corrections and directions given by God. Even when we make mistakes or stray from God's path, the Holy Spirit guides us back in the right direction. The Holy Spirit, God's divine guidance system, is indwelling within you. He never leaves or forsakes you and is always speaking through the inner witness. Even when we dismiss or override His guidance, He prompts us to repent and recalculates our route to guide us back to His will.

Divine Guidance | Episode 3 | God Speaks

September 16, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • Romans 8:14, Mark 4

In the third episode of "Divine Guidance," Duane Sheriff teaches how to hear God's voice. Mark chapter 4 highlights the importance of choosing to hear God's voice and how it can lead us to wise decisions that bring healing and prosperity into our lives. Romans 8:14: "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God." If you are born again, it is your birthright to be led by the Lord. Even though God constantly speaks and leads, it is not automatic and requires faith. Duane references biblical examples to illustrate that God has always talked to His people, from Adam and Eve to Enoch, Noah, and beyond. Discern God's voice and heed His guidance in every aspect of life – for your occupation, relationships, or personal decisions. Sin does not stop God's voice. Instead, He calls us to repentance and closer fellowship. God's guidance is always available; we must learn to recognize and respond to it.
