When God Leads a Man

You face a decision that will shape your home for 10 years, whether to take the job 400 miles away, ask her to marry you, or step into a calling that scares you, and God has not dropped a 10 year map with the route circled in red. You have swung between charging ahead and freezing, between pretending you know and waiting until the moment passes.
This book is not a formula of pray 3 days and flip to a verse, and it is not a pep talk that says desire equals destiny. It is not a leader's memoir that equates platform with calling. What you need is a biblical, grounded way to walk with the Shepherd sheep close enough to know His voice, through Scripture, Spirit, counsel, doors, and gifts. The 16 chapters ahead build that walk step by step and give you a process you can use this week on a real choice.
Inside, you will discover:
• What being led means as a sheep who knows the Shepherd, not a code to crack
• The Bible as the foundation that rules some options in and others out for good
• The Spirit's quiet witness, the check that restrains and the green light that releases
• The peace test that stands guard and the 4 counterfeits that mimic it
• Wise counsel from 2 or 3 who love truth and the question they ask that you missed
• Open doors, closed doors, and not yet doors that mature you before the blessing
• Desires and gifts aligned with an open door as a clear signal of calling
You will run every impression through 8 tests, Scripture, Christ, fruit, obedience, nearness, counsel, time, and conscience, and you will learn to wait when the picture is mixed and to step when 6 of 8 point the same way. Joseph waited years in a pit before a palace, and Paul waited before his mission exploded, and neither was wasted. If you want to move from listing pros and cons to walking one step at a time with a hand on your shoulder, this is the road. God wants to lead you more than you want to be led.
