What Is God's Will For Me?

Hi guys,

2018 has been awesome for me. One of the prophetic declarations for this year is that everyday shall be Christmas for me. I believed it and I can reliably say that my diary is almost filled with God's wonders and mercies to me. Let me stop the stories and enter to the business of the day.

I am writing about what I have learnt about God's will. What is God's will? I will interpret it as God's desires, God's expectations and God's plan for me. Thankfully, I spent this year learning at the feet of one of God's servants on the earth so I thought to share some of God's will for us.

1. Salvation

John 3: 16, which says that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son(Jesus), so that whoever believes in Him would not perish but have everlasting life. So God's will for us is salvation from Sin. Isaiah 53: 1-4 painted a picture of what Christ did for us at calvary.  You can't call out to God unless you believe He sent His Son to save us(John 1:12) You also need to believe in Him.  John 3;16 confirmed as well as 2 Peter 3:9.

2 Peter 3:9 says God wants us to come to repentance i.e. be saved.

'The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness 

but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish,

          but that all should come to repentance. ' 2 Peter 3:9 

2. Glorify and Praise Him

Malachi 2: 1-3 says it a commandment, a debt we owe God. All the Glory must be to God, not you

nor any man(as God fit kill the person). Isaiah 43:21, 1 Peter 2:9. God can't glorify Himself. If we don't thank, praise or glorify

Him, He can raise stones to do the job; Luke 19:40

3. Prosperity

You can read this book by Gloria Copeland

God's will for us is prosperity.  He said in Job 36:11 that those who Obey and serve Him will spend their days in PROSPERITY and their years in Pleasures.  3 John 2 says that 

"I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be of good health, even as thy soul prospereth'

So you see? God wants us to prosper.







4. Long life


I read a book this year called Fulfilling your days Bishop Oyedepo in the book, called Psalm 91 the Long Life Psalm i.e the chapter has covenant terms for long life. Serve God and he will provide every other thing listed in it.







Marriage(Gen 2:18), Children(Deuteronomy 7:14, Psalm 127:3), Promotion(Psalm 75:6-7) , etcare from God and are perfectly in line with God's gift for us all.

We only need to serve Him by doing His commandments, which are not grievous or burdensome(1 John 5:2-3).  We can also boldly remind Him of those promises(His Will).
