THE WILL OF GOD





How do you know
If you are doing
The will of God

Something is troubling you
And your are suffering
And you know
Not what to do

It may be health related
Praying for a miracle

It may be financial
Maybe you just lost your job

It may be
A broken relationship
That no matter how hard that you try
You just can’t seem to restore it

How do you know

If your suffering is God’s will
I don’t know
Can’t answer that

But I can tell you this

In 1 Peter 4, it says,
“If you suffer
It should not be
As a murderer or thief
Or any other kind of criminal
Or even as a meddler

However
If you suffer as a Christian
Do NOT be ashamed
But PRAISE GOD
That you bear his name”                                     1 Peter 4:15 & 16

You may NOT even see it
How it helps anyone
But it just may be
For the GREATER GOOD

The will of God---
How do we know
---If we are abiding in it

One thing I do know
Is that
If you are trying
To live by the standards of this world

Sexual lust---materialism---violence
That that Is NOT
THE WILL OF GOD

“Do not conform
Any longer to the pattern
Of this world
But be transformed
By the renewing of the mind

Then you will be able
To test and approve
What GOD’S WILL IS-------------
HIS GOOD, PERFECT AND PLEASING WILL”                                 Romans 12:2

So HOW  do we know
Really know
That we are really doing
The will of God

I do know this
If it is the right choice
If it is the right decision
It---your life---your decisions
Will stand the test of tine

“The world and its desires pass away
But the man who does the will of God---LIVES FOREVER”                         1 John 2:!7

THE WORD OF GOD
THE WILL OF GOD

STANDS FOREVER
