Without GPS (Global Positioning System), we might not know where we are, or how far off course we are, or how to reach our destination. Oh, did I say, "Global," I could have said, "God."
Concerning our spiritual GPS (God Positioning System), there are various ways God communicates to us, concerning our spiritual Position (our location in relationship to Himself). God is both transcendent (outside and beyond us), and God is imminent (near us and/or within us).
Transcendent and Imminent
God is beyond us, and He calls us to Himself. He is the absolute truth, the perfect objective, and the final authority.
God is around us, working in our circumstances, ordering our lives, and speaking to us through other people and through His word (The Holy Bible).
God is within us (if we are saved), convicting, correcting and counseling us in the way we ought to go (live). The Holy Spirit in us is our Compass, and He always points us to Christ.
If our spiritual GPS is not receiving God's signals, we are lost and headed for disaster. God enables our inner spiritual GPS when we believe on Christ and receive Him into our lives.
