What is God’s Will for Your Life?

3 May

Do you ever wonder what God’s will is for you? Well, it’s really quite simple. You don’t need to read a book, take a course, or go to a seminar, to figure it out.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 tells us clearly that God’s will is for us to, “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances…”

That’s it! Pretty simple, right? But impossible on our own. Even the mighty apostle Paul, when He declared, “I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation…” admitted he could only “…do all this through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:12 and 13.

The secret to living continually in God’s will is to live continually in Christ, leaning totally on Him for strength to face each day. It is only when we do this that we will be able to “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:12 NIV.

This morning, stop trying to figure out God’s will for your life and start living His will for your life. Give your heart to Jesus and “be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Romans 12:2.

God bless! Have a wonderful day! And remember, no matter what comes your way to Rejoice always, pray continually, and give thanks!
