'Directs' in the Bible

A person plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps.

A king's heart is a water stream that the LORD controls; he directs it wherever he pleases.

"This is what the LORD says, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "I am the LORD your God, who teaches you how to succeed, who directs you in the path by which you should go.

And look at ships! They are so big that it takes strong winds to drive them, yet they are steered by a tiny rudder wherever the helmsman directs.
