FINDING THE WILL OF GOD

JESUS CHRIST said, "Whoever does the will of My Father in
heaven is My brother and sister and mother" (Matthew 12:50).
The happiest, most content, most fulfilled person in all the world is
the person doing God's will. That being true, one of the most
important things in all the world is knowing God's will.
The greatest deception perpetuated by Satan is that happiness and
gratification can be found apart from God's will. Momentary kicks,
yes. But not lasting happiness. For kicks apart from Christ always -
ALWAYS - have a kick-back.
If knowing God's will is so important and results in such blessings,
how can you know God's will? Momentarily I will share six Biblical
principles involved in finding God's will. First I want to warn there
are some persons who are blind guides offering to guide the blind.
Beware of these.
SOME TYPES ARE:
1. Those who have made up their minds what they are going to do
but are looking for somebody to agree with them; and thus, console
themselves that they are right because of this agreement. They
often look for a minister who agrees with them. If one doesn't, they
turn to another. If a friend doesn't, they continue to look for a
confirming friend.
2. Another type is the person who has fouled up his or her own life
and is now ready to counsel everyone else on how to do it. These
persons can be recognized by these traits.
a. They have goofed-up their own lives.
b. They have a minimum understanding of grace.
c. They are nosey about other people's business.
d. They believe they are experts because of their experience.
These persons are guilty of sticking their nose in other people's
business.
CONSIDER THESE PERIMETERS OF GOD'S WILL
* It begins at the moment of salvation and ends at death.
* All of God's will is in keeping with the principles, commands,
techniques, ...
