First To Know God’s Will You Have To Be 100% Surrendered To God.
First To Know God’s Will You Have To Be 100% Surrendered To God.
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths.
God’s will is different for each of us, with one exception.
Being a witness and leading others to Jesus Christ.
It’s called the Great Commission!
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
God’s will is more about our relationship with Him.
We all have asked this question from time to time.
If God wants you to do His will, why is it so hard to know exactly what He’s after.
We have questions like:
Who should I marry?
What about the job offer in Texas, take it or leave it!
Buy an house with this economy the way it’s going is it a good idea, or the worst financial decision ever.
We pray to God for His will in those’s decisions.
We pray and pray for an answer from God, on what we should do.
And you hear nothing, not a peep.
We then start thanking is, God hearing me.
Are you listening to me God.
I need an answer. I need it now!
Being in God’s Will is based on your personal relationship with Him.
Remember to be in God’s Will you have to be surrendered to His Will.
We have to be separated from this world.
The Bible tells us that “we are not to be conformed to this world.”
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
The Bible also says, “We cannot serve two masters.”
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
The only way we can do God’s Will.
Is to surrender 100% to Him
That’s the only way we can do God’s will for our lives.
Scriptures about doing God’s Will.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
Delight thyself also in the Lord; And he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
