DECISION MAKING AND THE WILL OF GOD: By Passion or Provenance

 

DECISION MAKING AND THE WILL OF GOD: By Passion or Provenance

  John 17: God’s Word is Truth.

  2Timothy [MKJV] 3:16-17 Every Scripture passage is inspired by God. All of them are useful for teaching, pointing out errors, correcting people, and training them for a life that has God's approval. 

They equip God's servants so that they are completely prepared to do good things. 

  1Peter 1:24-25 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of men as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls out, but the Word of the Lord endures forever. And this is the Word preached as gospel to you.

  Family, especially Dad, school teachers, and then the Word taught me something that I still must be occasionally reminded of: wise decisions are made not by emotion, but by accepting facts. As it is with God usward concerning out personal lives. God does not determine. As from the beginning, He advises and directs. Moses, Gideon, Peter, Saul/Paul being examples of compliance though some of them were emotionally reluctantly so. (Serving God may be scary at times. This I know.) Then, as now, there are others that refused.

  God even leaving where we’ll spend eternity up to you and I. (Jn.3:1-21)

  God delights in revealing His will to those desiring and willing to do his will. His will clearly stated in His Word.     

  Read the Word, think, rethink as needed, please Him with authentic worship. (Rom.12:1-3)
