The BIBLE says 'IF ye lack knowledge, ask of GOD who gives it liberally." "Be ye trasformed by the renewing of your mind". Seems to me that knowing, having a relationship with JESUS..talking, worshipping and chatting with HIM daily that HIS HOLY SPIRIT will comfort, guide, direct your steps..as promised..meaning that you get TONS of encouragement from your Creator, first and foremost. THEN, supernaturally, GOD sends the right people across your pathway as confirmation, encouragement..or maybe just to "test' you. We entertain angels unawares! Be bold with GOD..if you dare...ask for guardian angels, ask for discernment...ask to utilize one or all of the 9 gifts of the SPIRIT as listed in Corinthians. Please allow GOD to reveal things to you as you grow. He is the greatest encourager that you will ever have.
