There are very many options in the hand of the Lord in making His perfect will known to His children, who are praying aright.  The Lord uses the following methods among many others:-

• Dreams or other forms of revelation (cons. Mtt. 1:19-20; Act. 16:9-10).
• Signs to convince and prove His choice (cons. Gen. 24:11-21; Judg. 6:36-40)
• Some definite impression in the heart, usually very strong to be ignored.
• Special love springing out for the person He is giving to the other.

It is advised that in order to avoid confusion and misconception, counsel of genuine, experienced and spirit filled ministers of God should be sort for purposes of guidance and clarifications.  God has His way of making His leadings and revelations distinct from counterfeits of the devil, for those who are careful, diligent and conscientious in their walk with Him.
