The teaching outlines six primary ways God communicates with His people, emphasizing that His guidance is both accessible and multifaceted. God speaks first through Scripture, the unchanging foundation of His voice, and through the Holy Spirit, who brings clarity, conviction, and direction. He also leads through inner peace, the quiet assurance that aligns with His will. The lesson highlights the importance of wise counsel, noting that “in the multitude of counselors there is safety” and warning against ungodly influence, as seen in “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly …” . God also uses prophetic words, dreams, and visions—fulfilling His promise that in the last days He would pour out His Spirit on all people, enabling them to prophesy, dream, and see visions. Finally, He speaks through circumstances, opening and closing doors as part of His sovereign guidance, such as the assurance, “See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.”
