Bible Verses About Gods Will: 20 Guiding Quotes by PAMELA ROSE

WILLIAMS
There have been many books written to help people understand what the will of
God is for their life. Gods will, in the Bible applies to all believers whereas Gods
plan for your life may differ from someone elses plan. A pastor once told us that it
is simple to understand Gods will for your life. All you have to do is answer 3
simple questions: (1) Is it Scriptural? (2) Is it the desire of your heart?; and (3) Is
there a need? If the answer No to any of these questions, then it is not Gods will
or plan for you. Here are 20 Bible verses about Gods will that you may use as a
guide:
1 Timothy 2:1-4 First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers,
intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who
are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and
dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our
Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the
truth.Gods Will for All BelieversJohn 7:17 If anyones will is to do Gods will, he
will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own
authority.

2 Corinthians 8:1-6 We want you to know, brothers, about the grace of God that
has been given among the churches of Macedonia, for in a severe test of affliction,
their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of
generosity on their part. For they gave according to their means, as I can testify,
and beyond their means, of their own accord, begging us earnestly for the favor of
taking part in the relief of the saints and this, not as we expected, but they gave
themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us. Accordingly, we
urged Titus that as he had started, so he should complete among you this act of
grace.

it be to the emperor as supreme, or to governors as sent by him to punish those
who do evil and to praise those who do good. For this is the will of God, that by
doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as
people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as
servants of God.

souls to a faithful Creator while doing good.

abides forever.

How Can You Know Gods WillClearly the Bible tells us that it is Gods will
for all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (1Timothy
2:4). Then as believers we are to be conformed to the image of His Son (Romans
8:29). We are taught things in the Bible that will help us to do the things that please
God. When you are looking for Gods specific plan for your life you must
fervently pray for God to show it to you. Remember when you are praying that
God will open and close doors along the way. When God opens a door walk
through it. When God closes a door; do not open it back up. Make your plan as
though God will bless it and then execute it. He will reveal to you what He wants
for you and dont ever forget that His grace is sufficient for whatever come what
may. Thats a promise!
