Will
If there’s a will there’s a way? Right? To do things the right way, they should be done with the right will.
We often hear about doing God’s will and not that of our own.
Let’s see what the Bible says about will.
Genesis 2:16-17 ESV
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ
We have a choice to live for our own selfish desires or live for God’s will. When we decide to live for God we have chosen to live for his will in this new life that he has given us. Just like Adam and Eve in the garden we have the options to make the right decisions.
Proverbs 16:9 ESV
The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.
We should make our decisions with God in the equation everytime. It’s good to have plans, but let’s plan to have God as the priority in all of our plans.he will guide you if you ask him.
Romans 12:2
English Standard Version
2 Do not be conformed to this world,[a] but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.[b
This is how we know we are living for God:
We are born again through Jesus Christ.
We become transformed by the renewal of our minds.
Through this renewal we strive to develop a close and personal relationship with our heavenly Father. The more we can develop this relationship, the more we can begin to understand what his will truly is in our lives. This is how we can align all of our thoughts, actions, words, and to decisions to his will.
