How do you know?

How do you know the will of God?


The world answers that question with the pursuit of knowledge. We must learn what the will of God is. We must search out His Word and know. We must discipline ourselves to understanding.


There is another consideration.


What if the “education” of the will of God in my life is more profound and simpler than that? What if the discernment of the will of God is to obey him!


Oswald Chambers wrote in My Utmost for His Highest, “Intellectual darkness comes through ignorance; spiritual darkness comes because of something I do not intend to obey”.


The spiritual muscles of my life grow and mature as I progress through the daily application of the relationship with Jesus.

  • More than just thinking about Him.
  • Deeper than being one with Him
  • Doing His will


"If any man will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine . . ." John 7:17
