How To Determine God's Will


Paul wrote that we should understand what the will of God is for each of us (Eph. 5:17). 

First, God's will is found in his Word.  It begins with our being saved (Eph. 2:8).  Then we are to join a New Testament church (Acts 2:47) that is to be followed by biblical baptism (Matt. 28:19).  We are to have Godly homes (Titus 2:3-5; Eph. 5:22-26; Eph. 6:1-3).

Obey our Government (Rom. 13:1-7).  Enjoy fellowship in the church.  Keep the world's evils out of our lives (I John 2:15-17).  Witness to the lost.  Tithe our income (II Cor. 9:6-8); I Cor. 9:4-14).

Learn our gifts and obey them (I Ptr. 4:10).  Love our neighbors.  Look for Christ's coming.  Put God's will first above all things (Rom. 12:1, 2).  Love God above all human regulations.
