Be focused on Christ that if things are not done in Christ, then let it remain undone. When life knocks you down, wherever you fall to, get back up. Don't allow people to tell you you're sorry and return back to God. The voice of the Lord is the principal channel of divine guidance(Revelation 1:10). Nothing guides and direct a man like the voice of God. Always pray for God to direct you in everything you're doing. A man filled with God's spirit cannot be predicted but a man filled with canalities can be easily predicted.
How to access the voice of God.
Go up hither(Isaiah 30vs2, Psalm 63:1). You need to scale a new height on order to hear the voice of God. Continuously program yourself to hear the voice of God. A quiet time and hour of the day(early in the morning or very late at nightie the best time to study Bible instead of always playing with your phone). Just as people who called the radio channels take their time to call at the right time, that is how you need to be focused to tune into the frequency of God.
Joy. God only goes with a man who has a joyful heart. When you have joy in your heart, it easily attracts the voice of God. If there is no joy on you, you can easily be harmed. Satan can come into your heart when your angry and anger is the one thing that will lead to destruction in one's life. You're not God boss, you cannot decide for God. God will make all things beautiful in the exact time and season.
Rise up early(Isaiah 50:4-5, Ecclesiastes 3:1). Make the time available to hear from God. Do not let sleep destroy your plans from hearing the voice of God because sleep corrupts your destiny.
