God’s guidance is often surprising, challenging, and beyond our understanding. In Acts 16, we see Paul and his companions embarking on a Spirit-led journey, showing us what it means to follow God’s leading in every area of life. Through their story, we discover four key principles to let God take the lead.

1️⃣ Stay Sensitive to the Spirit
Paul and Timothy adjusted their plans to follow the Spirit’s direction, even when it meant heading into the unknown. Sensitivity to God’s leading often requires humility and willingness to pivot for His purposes. (Isaiah 55:8; Acts 20:22-24)

2️⃣ Develop a Burden for the Hurting
The vision of the Macedonian man revealed God’s heart for the lost. Paul responded with urgency and compassion, demonstrating a deep burden for those in spiritual need. (Jude 1:22-23, Charles Spurgeon)

3️⃣ Trust God to Provide Along the Way
God provided perfect conditions for Paul’s journey, reminding us that He equips and sustains those who follow His call. Whether through favorable winds or faithful friends, His provision is sufficient. (Romans 8:31, Philippians 4:19)

4️⃣ Be OK with Unconventional
Paul’s encounter with Lydia, a seller of purple, shows that God works in unexpected ways to accomplish His mission. Trusting God means embracing His unconventional plans and outcomes. (Proverbs 3:5-6, Jeremiah 29:11)

Letting God lead means trusting Him with our plans, embracing His timing, and surrendering to His ways. When we follow His guidance, He uses us to bring light to a world in need, providing direction, peace, and purpose along the way. Will you allow God to lead your steps today?
