Customer Reviews

Would you like help in making decisions in life and understanding God's will? Read this book.

I read this book a couple years ago and since I recommend it to anyone that is dealing with decision-making and knowing the will of God. A classic. It's unfortunate that it's out of print (At least it seems to be out of print). If you see a used copy here..Grab it!

Biblically Solid

"The Bible promises that a serious child of God can know the perfect will of God for his life and experience the joy, reality, and fullness of divine guidance" with that assurance Bob Mumford leads us into a further understanding of the process of flowing in God's guidance (p. 21). On page 40 he tells us "...most guidance occurs when we are not even conscious of it." God arranges circumstances in the lives of His children. God's guidance is referred to as "adventurous" in more than one place in this book and that is a good way to describe it. Mumford points out "The world calls it luck. The Christian calls it providence" (p. 44). Learning to walk in God's guidance is learning to cultivate an intimate walk with God he adds. This is a very helpful, inspiring book which I strongly recommend.

great book on god's guidance

Mumford draws from the Bible to offer guidelines on how to determine the will of God and this book is one of the best I have ever read on that topic. (One of the other ones I can think of is Kenneth Hagin's How You Can Be Led by the Spirit of God. The two books cover different aspects but they are both very helpful.) To summarize very briefly, he says there are three things you should look for in determining how God's will applies to everyday, real life situations: (1) the word of God (as revealed in the Bible), (2) the inner witness of the Holy Spirit, and (3) everyday circumstances. He backs this up with examples from the Bible and the testimony of his own life. The author is currently involved in a ministry which he calls the Lifechangers ministry. This is a great book and it has been a great influence on me in seeking God's guidance. It is one of a number of good books that he has written.
