Proverbs 3:5-6
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths.”
Proverbs 3:7
“Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and depart from evil.”
Proverbs 12:15
“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who heeds counsel is wise.”

Proverbs 19:20
“Listen to counsel and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter days.”
Proverbs 21:2
“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs the hearts.”
Proverbs 26:12
“Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.”
Proverbs 28:26
“He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, but whoever walks wisely will be delivered.”
Isaiah 26:4
“Trust in the LORD forever, for in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength.”
Jeremiah 10:23
“O LORD, I know the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.”
Jeremiah 17:7-8
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD and whose hope is the LORD. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river and will not fear when heat comes; but its leaf will be green, and it will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will it cease from yielding fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:9
“The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked; who can know it?”
According to the reviewed scriptures, it is evident that we should never trust our feelings when it comes to making decisions pertaining to our lives. This is because nothing good has resided in our hearts since the fall of man.
The Bible records that it is impossible for man to direct his steps in the right direction (Jeremiah 10:23). This is because it is only God who knows what is good for us and who can therefore guide us in the right direction.
However, for this to happen, we must willingly surrender our lives to Him by believing in His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. By so doing, we become born again and begin to walk under the instruction of the Holy Spirit. By so doing, we shall never go wrong.
Whatever the decision you want to make, whether it is about a career, a spouse, or a business contract, among others, with God at the center of things, it shall be well with you.
I hope this is helpful. God bless you. Shalom.
