In other words, simply tell the Lord you\u2019ll do anything He says.

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Having done this, I do not leave the result to feeling or simple impression. If I do so I make myself liable to great delusions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I seek the will of the Spirit of God through or in connection with God\u2019s Word. The Spirit and the Word must be combined. If I look to the Spirit alone without the Word, I lay myself open to great delusions also. If the Holy Spirit guides us He will do it-according to the Scriptures, never contrary to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I take next into account providential circumstances. These often plainly indicate God\u2019s will, in connection with His Word and Spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I ask God to reveal His will to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Through prayer, the study of the Word and reflection, I come to a deliberate judgement according to the best of my ability and knowledge. If my mind is thus at peace and continues so after two or three more petitions, I proceed accordingly. I have found this method always effective in trivial or important issues.<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
