Understanding What The Will Of The Lord Is!

We hear others tell us that they don't know what the will of the Lord is for their life. They might try to find it from someone else or ask friends what the will of God is, but the only place that we will gain Spiritual wisdom is found in the Word of God. When we study God's Word, we begin to understand what He want from us and how He wants us to live. If you are not in the Word of God, then you can only guess what you should do with your life.

One thing that God wants is for us to be saved.
1Timothy; 2:3-4
(For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desired all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.)
We should also be Spirit-filled.
Ephesians; 5:18
(And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,)
We also are to be sanctified.
1Thessalonians; 4:3
(For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality)
We are to be submissive.
1Peter; 2:13-15
(Therefore submit yourself to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake, whether to the king as supreme, or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers and for the praise of those who do good. For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.)
We may suffer for doing good, and we are to take it patiently.
1Peter; 2:20
(For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.)
We are to be thankful.
1Thessalonians; 5:16-18

(Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.)
Jesus has left us an example of how we are to conduct ourselves in this world. Our goal is to be more Christ like in our Christian walk, and we need to look at his life for direction on how to do this.
1Peter;4:1-2
(Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lust of men, but for the will of God.)
Study God's Word the Bible. It is the way you will learn what His will is for your life.

God Bless you!
