KNOWING THE WILL OF GOD

Often, people have asked me, “What is the will of God for my life?”

Now, that is a great question, but no one can know the will for you but you, yourself.

How does one find the will of God? The first place always is the Word of God. If what you are about to do contradicts what the Word of God says, then it is never God’s will.

God never violates His will. He will not tell you to steal, or cheat, or lie, or commit a sin.

Once you read and study the Word of God, the Holy Spirit speaks to you through the Word. Secondly, you will have peace from God if what you are wanting to do is the will of God. There will be no check in your spirit to not do something, or a check that it is not the right timing. You just feel the peace of God that passes all understanding. It will guide your heart and mind.

Once you know the will of God and have peace in your spirit, then, step out in faith to do what you know He has called you to do. There will be times that others will tell you not to do it, but if you know deep in your spirit that God is leading you then move forward. Yes, it is good to get counsel, but the decision must ultimately be made by you.

Remember, we are not puppets. God leads gently. Satan pushes. If you feel pushed to do something that makes you uncomfortable do not go forward with it. That inner tug that says no is protecting you.

The path that God leads you on may not be easy. Do not base the will of God on circumstances because they tend to change. Base your decisions on the Word of God and the peace of God.

Remember, John 10:3 says, “…and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them…”

You hear the voice of God in your spirit, and through the word. God can’t lie. He said his sheep hear his voice, so trust that He will lead you.
