This is a message I posted in 2012 and I believe that it is even more fitting for today.

Which Way Do We Go, Lord?
Which way do we go, Lord? That is the question many are asking these days. You are wondering how should you prepare for the disasters which God is unleashing upon this nation and the horrors that are about to be sent upon this wicked nation and even the whole world. You have prayed and prayed and prayed for direction from the Lord but haven't received any answers yet. You have read the Bible seeking the guidance of the Lord, but it is as if the heavens were brass and nothing is coming from them. You are wondering if something is blocking you from hearing from the Lord, if you have unconfessed sin in your life that is preventing communication from above. You have even begun to fear that maybe God is angry with you and won't respond to you, or that you don't have enough faith to get an answer.
None of the above are true.
Here is the truth:
Isa 30:21 - Whether you turn to the right or the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you saying, "This is the way; walk in it.
When the time comes for you to take action in the coming days the Lord will guide you and direct you - you will be on a path that the Lord has set before you and you will not even be able to stray from it. You will then see that all your prayers and faithfulness have borne fruit and that God is answering your prayers in ways that you had never imagined.
Some other verses to meditate on:
Psalm 119:105 - Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
Psalm 139:3 - You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
Proverbs 4:18 - But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter until the full day.
Proverbs 5:21 - For the ways of a man are before the eyes of the LORD, and He watches all his paths.
Isaiah 42:16 - I will lead the blind by a way they do not know, in paths they do not know I will guide them. I will make darkness into light before them and rugged places into plains. These are the things I will do, and I will not leave them undone.
Isaiah 43:16 - Thus says the LORD, Who makes a way through the sea And a path through the mighty waters,
Isaiah 51:10 - Was it not You who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; Who made the depths of the sea a pathway for the redeemed to cross over?
Jeremiah 31:9 - With weeping they will come, and by supplication I will lead them; I will make them walk by streams of waters, on a straight path in which they will not stumble; for I am a father to Israel, And Ephraim is My firstborn.
So continue seeking the Lord, my brothers and sisters. Continue in your prayers, Bible reading and faithfulness. In due time you will hear His voice and know which direction you are to take. The Lord be with you all, may He give you peace now and in the days to come. I love you all.
Addendum 2/18/16 - Do not fear my brothers and sisters about the coming days. When, or if, it is time for you to move this year you will know it. You may not know where the Lord is sending you, but you will know it is time to go. He will lead you on the path you are to go on. Trusting in Him in those days is what faith is all about. Remember, HE WILL LEAD YOU IN THE WAY YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO GO! May God bless each and every one of you in the days to come.
Your recent post was perfectly timed, and aimed right at my wife and I! We have been seeking the Lord about possible relocation, possibly outside of the USA, but have absolutely no clear direction regarding the matter. It has been a frustrating time, especially for me. PTL….Your post was a specific answer to our prayers! We see the storm clouds looming, we have heard the voices of many faithful watchman, including yourself, we know that really hard times are coming, but we do NOT want to get ahead of the Lord and act on our fleshly impulses. Thanks for the plain and straight-forward reminders to trust, wait, and obey if or when the Lord speaks! We have been encouraged, once again, to do just that!! Thanks you for continuing to be a vessel fit for the Lords use!
