Walking in God’s Strategic Will? Trust, Follow, and Submit.

Every born-again believer should desire to walk in God’s guidance, provision, and care, but how do we know we’re truly aligned with His will? "Three key scriptures" Deuteronomy 31:8, Proverbs 16:9, and Revelation 3:7—offer clarity on trusting, following, and submitting to God's direction.

1. Trust: God Goes Before You (Deuteronomy 31:8)

“The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

God leads the way before we even step out. Fear and discouragement come when we focus on the unknown, but faith reminds us that God has already prepared our path. Walking in His fullness means trusting that He has gone before us and made provision for what’s ahead.

2. Follow: Yield Your Plans to God (Proverbs 16:9)

“The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps.”

We are called to plan with wisdom, but true spiritual maturity means staying flexible to God’s direction. Sometimes our plans change—not because we failed, but because God is leading us to something better. A Fully Actualized Kingdom Saint walks in faith, allowing God to adjust their steps for His purpose.

3. Submit: Trust the Doors God Opens and Closes (Revelation 3:7)

“What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.”

God is in control of opportunities. When He opens a door, walk through it. When He closes a door, trust His wisdom. Many struggle with closed doors, but what if they are actually divine protection? Submission to God’s will means accepting both the “yes” and the “no” with faith.

Conclusion: Walking in the Fullness of God’s Guidance

  • Trust that God has already gone before you.
  • Follow by yielding your plans to His direction.
  • Submit to the doors He opens and closes.

This is how we walk in the fullness of God’s will—not striving in our own strength, but moving in step with His divine plan.
