HOW TO KNOW THE WILL OF GOD
FOR YOUR LIFE: What is a will? A WILL: A legal declaration of how a person wishes his or her possessions to be disposed of after death. b. A legally executed document containing this declaration. 3. Testament: Law. A written document providing for the disposition of a person's property after death; a will. Since will is the key word here it is best if we deal with that word first. Since people learn best by example, let me give an example of a will. A man has three children with his wife, and two children with another woman. The man has $200,000 which he wanted to share up between his children when he died. However, his first child are very greedy and will grab all the money for himself. So the man decide to make a will the will show his intention. So he made will, and put it in a safe place. one child must get $50000, the other one $50000 and the third child get $50000. The remaining $50000 must share up between his other children out of wedlock. This is a will or a testament. THE WILL OF GOD FOR HUMANITY: God made two will and give to humanity, one is called the "Old Testament of our bible" The other will is call the "New Testament of our Bible" Any problem you and I have, we need to look up in the these two testaments and see what it has to say regarding to our situations. (1) HOW DO I KNOW IF IT THE WILL OF GOD FOR ME TO GO UN THE MISSION FIELD AS A MISSIONARY? First of all, are you a born again Christians? Did you commit your life to the lord. God do not send out people who are not committed to him. People who he did not clean up, wash and sanctified. Say for example you pass all these test. You need to first find out what are you calling and gift. 1Corinthians 12:27-AV Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. 1Corinthians 12:28-AV And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. 1Corinthians 12:29-AV [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles? 1Corinthians 12:30-AV Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? ALL ARE SENT BUT WHERE AND TO DO WHAT!: Mark 16:15-AV And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:16-AV He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mark 16:17-AV And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; Matthew 28:19-AV Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Matthew 28:20-AV Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen. THE LORD WILL PUT A BURDEN UPON YOU AFTER EQUIPPING YOU FOR THE WORK: The burden will outweigh your ambitions, the more urgent is the calling is the more severe is the burden. If the lord want you to work among the bush men of Africa, the lord will give you a burden for them. You will see them just like your own child who is held captive and are going to be executed one year time. As the day draw closer so your burden get heavier to go there and try to pull off a rescue. If you run away you will always go back because the burden will not go away. The burden also has a love attach with it. When I was going to Bible school, I alway go to my mother home town. Children would came running out to me as I pass through the village, I feel like these children need a Sunday school. I went to one church in the community and talk to them about starting a Sunday school, they say they tried it several time and it failed. I went to the other church. They told me" James It is your burden, don't you se it is you the lord want to start this Sunday school, don't you see, it is you are the one that worried about them? You start it. So I started it, many children turn up, some of them got saved and became minister and are still is many years later. Matthew 26:28-AV For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 2Corinthians 3:6-AV Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. 2Corinthians 3:14-AV But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which [vail] is done away in Christ. Hebrews 9:15-AV And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions [that were] under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. GOD HAS THREE WAYS OF LETTING US KNOW HIS WILL: First the written word, second the holy spirit, and third, prophets. The holy spirit give you and gut feeling, planted the ideas in your mind. Then there are new testament prophets, who will confirm what you are feeling. John 14:26-AV But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 15:26-AV But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: John 16:7-AV Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. THE HOLY SPIRIT JOB IS TO GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH: John 16:13-AV Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. Romans 12:2-AV And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. WE WILL HAVE THE WITNESS IN OUR SELF WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT IS LEADING US: 1John 5:10-AV He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 1John 5:8-AV And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 1John 5:6-AV This is he that came by water and blood, [even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. THE LORD SPOKE TO US BY HIS HOLY SPIRIT: Revelation 2:7-AV He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. Then the holy spirit has way how he spoke to us. He will create a doubt in you when you are going wrong, and free spirit when you are on the right path. THE LORD SPOKE TO US BY THE WRITTEN WORD: Jeremiah 23:29-AV [Is] not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer [that] breaketh the rock in pieces? THE LORD SPOKE TO US BY NEW TESTAMENT PROPHETS: 1Corinthians 14:37-AV If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. Ephesians 4:11-AV And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; Acts 11:28-AV And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar. Acts 21:10-AV And as we tarried [there] many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus. Acts 21:11-AV And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver [him] into the hands of the Gentiles. KNOWING THE VOICE OF THE LORD: 1Kings 19:11-AV And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; [but] the LORD [was] not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; [but] the LORD [was] not in the earthquake: 1Kings 19:12-AV And after the earthquake a fire; [but] the LORD [was] not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. 1Kings 19:13-AV And it was [so], when Elijah heard [it], that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, [there came] a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah? http://www.ss.20fr.com/thewillofgod.html It will take too long to find the manuscript, so I do this mini article for you.

Thanks!!
Thanks, ghostwriter, for the time you took doing that! It was really helpful. I know I probably won't know right away what the will of God for me is, but I can pursue what I think it is and see if He opens the doors for it to happen.
Once again, thanks. I feel a lot less confused. |
