We naturally expect and want God to lead us like dumb animals. But it’s always by inspiration according to His word. As we are impressed to action through the Holy Spirit by faith. God said, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way that you shall go.”
Therefore, the steps of a righteous man are divinely ordered through faith. God guides him with a watchful eye. Watching over him to make sure he does not go wrong without dictations.
And not like a mule or a horse whose harness are bit and bridle to control him, which is told to go left and to go right. To walk straight, to go backwards or around. Having no understanding why he makes each step.
But as the sheep knows and is moved by the sound of the shepherd’s voice, the sheep knows and understands exactly what it is they must do by His guidance. Psalm 37:23-24, Psalm 32:8-9 and John 10:27-28
