What Direction Are You Going In?


Jesus tells His disciples that it is their will that will lead them closer to God or away from God. The will is defined as the part of us that makes decisions. It is how someone consciously decides things. All have the power to make assessments, determinations, and choices. Jesus only sought the will of Him who sent Him so He was in harmony with the will of God. He submitted His will to the Father and sought the glory of His Father alone. There was no possibility of unrighteousness. Those who desire their own pride and power desire their own will and not the will of God. A person will not be given the grace of God to overcome unless we are completely willing to do God’s will. We must be in full agreement with God, if so we can move mountains and nothing is impossible! If anyone wills to do His will he shall know concerning the doctrine. Many people wonder why it is so difficult for them to do what God wills them to do it is because there is unwillingness! A self-centered will fails at discerning God’s will. We must not place our own will before God’s will! If we do we will become nervous, fearful, and fretful. We must be willing to do His will as our will. This is the one who will know His will. Is your will the same as God’s will? Make sure your life is going in the same direction as His life.
