“The Secret of Guidance” by F.B. Meyer Scott Pauley

Outside of the Scriptures the most helpful thing that I read during that period was a chapter from F.B. Meyer on "The Secret of Guidance."

Are you facing any decision right now? In need of guidance? Searching for direction?

Years ago, I came to a crossroads in my life. We all make many decisions every day, but there are seasons of decision-making that alter the course of our own life and the lives of others. These are critical moments.

Reflecting back on that period, there are many things that I realize the Lord used to guide me into His will. Day after day my prayer was, “Lead me in a plain path” (Psalm 27:11). He answered that prayer.

Wise counsel. Divine confirmations. Peace. Answers to prayer. Specific Scriptures. The Holy Spirit used all of this and more to direct my steps.

“The Secret of Guidance”

Outside of the Scriptures, the most helpful thing that I read during that period was a chapter from F.B. Meyer on “The Secret of Guidance.” Dozens of times in recent months I have recommended this piece to others. Now I would like to pass it along to you.

Meyer’s words are over 120 years old, and yet they are as fresh today as the day he wrote them. Truth is that way. It never goes out of date.

God has a will for your life. It can be known. And you will discover His will one step at a time.

I am happy to put these few pages in your hands and do so with the prayer that God will use them in your journey as He has in mine. The principles are from God’s Word. The practical applications are from a godly man.

There are many who base their entire view of themselves, their purpose, and their worth on the perception of others. In our day, many people allow social media algorithms to define them rather than our eternal God. Algorithms or Almighty God? This is a Battle for Definition.

Algorithms or Almighty God: Who Defines You?

When Onesimus was thrown in jail, Paul shared with him the glorious message of forgiveness and mercy in Jesus Christ. Onesimus becoame a believer as well. Imagine his shock when he found out the man who had just led him to the Lord Jesus Christ also showed his master (Philemon) how to be saved. Further, they are dear friends! Onesimus was sent back to Philemon, back home with a letter of pardon. That letter stated that his life was changed forever.

The purpose of Bible memory and how to practice it. God wrote a memory Book! This is what the Word of God was given for: to help us remember what God wants us to remember and what we are so prone to forget. Scripture memory is frequently emphasized to children and young people, but sorely neglected as we get older. Yet this is the time when God's Word most needs to be reinforced and rehearsed! Hebrews 2:1 says, "Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip."
