Method of Guidance

What methods might God use to guide or direct someone?

It seems plausible that God can alter or influence someone's thoughts and actions, if the person is willing for God to guide them, as I further questioned in my last post; Willing Gods Will. But in what particular way, might God cause or guide his will through someone? And how would they recognize his guidance? 

If God does direct people’s thoughts or actions, it seems this would play out in a variety of methods of function, considering the mass variety of circumstances that might be involved, and the variety of ways that people think. If God causes his will using the laws of physics, in a practical method of cause and effect (as I hypothesized in a post from 3+ yrs ago; Methods of Miraculous Manipulation), then in order for him to alter someone’s thoughts or actions, it seems likely he would utilize scientifically coherent methods of psychology. This would usually include any individuals typical method of thinking or taking action. Altering someone's psychology to make a certain decision would likely involve altering some circumstances at some point in the person's life, to cause the psychological effect of the relevant decision being the outcome. I hypothesized more on this concept, and potential explanations for how this method could function as a whole interconnected process throughout this world, without conflict of necessary altered circumstances reducing the free will of others, in a post from about 2.3 yrs ago; Influence Implementation. 

Assuming God does guide anyones thoughts through a scientific psychological method, it seems a common and practical way for God to do this, would be in concurrence with each individual’s typical method of thinking. Every person thinks and reacts in a unique way, to some degree. With the huge quantity of billions of neurons, and an average of 1000 synapses per neuron in a human brain, this creates a massive potential for combinations for each thought, and overall general tendency of method of thought for any given person. Method of accessing all these neurons would not only vary from person to person, but from time to time, for each person. 

Making the psychological method even much more complex, each person would have their own tendencies for using the 3 components of a thought process; instinct, subconscious, and consciousness, as I further described in a post from 2+ months ago; Mind Driver. Each person would also have tendencies for a type of intelligence and memory access, as I further mentioned in a post from 2.4 weeks ago; General vs Memory Intelligence. Throughout all these variances of methods of thought processes, God would cause alterations (when someone is willing) to the necessary components, in order to guide someone's thoughts or actions. 

If someone typically makes decisions quickly without deep consideration, using a higher degree of subconscious thought, then perhaps God would influence that person's subconscious memory. Since subconscious memory access is more based on positive or negative reinforcement linked with memory of factors, which the person is not really aware of, God might cause that person to have subconsciously received a different degree of reinforcement, when they interacted with the relevant factors in the past. If someone typically thinks more deeply, using reasoning, and conscious comprehension of cause and effect for a decision, then for God to influence their thoughts, he might cause more specific connections between neural combinations, which represent details in memories and understanding of the function of concepts involved in the scenario. If someone often reacts more based on instinct or emotions, God might alter which of that person's emotions have a stronger influence at that point in time, in order to influence them to react in a certain way. 

It seems likely that for God to influence someone's decisions or reactions, at their request, he would often simply use a method of cooperation with that person's type of thinking process. Whether its instinct, emotion, subconscious, or conscious thought, and whether its usually a function of adaptive or memory intelligence, perhaps someone understanding their own tendency of method of thinking, is a decent option for someone to recognize God’s; Method of Guidance.
