1116A: Keys to Finding the Will of God
The first key to finding the will of God is to accept him as Savior and Lord. We can't know God's Spirit, if God's Spirit is not living in us. The next step is to seek God's will, not doing what we want to do then asking God's approval. We have a new purpose now, and it is a spiritual purpose. Every decision made is based on how if affects the Kingdom of God. That will not always lead us down the easy road. The will of God is seldom the path lined with the aroma of flowers and the scent of success. But our prayer should be the same as Jesus', "Father, Thy will be done, on Earth, as it is in Heaven."
