Word guidance.

“Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.”
Hebrews 10:7

One of the ways God guides you is through His Word. This is because the Word of God is the written revelation of God's perfect will. So whatever the Word of God tells us to do is what we should do.

Jesus found God's will for His life from the written Word of God. Therefore God's perfect will for every area of your life can be revealed to you from the written Word of God. So the written Word of God in the Bible teaches us how to judge truth because God will never lead us away from His Word. So any revelation or teaching that cannot be validated by the written Word of God is error and from the evil one.

For instance, there is no place in the Bible that teaches us that sickness is good. The Bible only shows us that sickness is an oppression of the devil. Therefore the will of God can never be for you to live in sickness. (See Acts 10:38, Luke 4:18) There is no place in the Bible that teaches that it is okay to beat your wife so that she will be more submissive. The Bible shows us that the will of God is for husbands to love their wives and give themselves for their wives even as Christ loved the Church and gave Himself for it. Therefore the way to win your wives submission is to love her unconditionally. (See Ephesians 5:25-28, Colossians 3:19). In line with this truth, any teaching or voice that you hear that cannot be validated by the Word of God is error. The Word of God is the rule book for all faith and practice.

Confession.
Just like Jesus I declare according to the Word that, “I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.” Dear Father, open my eyes that I may behold wondrous things out of Your Word concerning Your plan and purpose for my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Doing the Word.
Whatever the Word says for you to do, do it.
