Part 2 – Where Do We Find God’s Will?
In Part 1 of this series, we saw that God’s will isn’t about unlocking some hidden roadmap for our future—it’s about growing in holiness and obedience to Him.
But that leads to another question: Where do we go to find God’s will?
The Word of God: Our Ultimate Guide
Romans 12:2 gives us the answer:
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
Knowing God’s will isn’t about waiting for a mystical sign—it’s about knowing His Word.
Paul tells us in 2 Timothy 3:16-17 that God’s Word is:
✔ Inspired by God
✔ Profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness
✔ Sufficient to equip us for every good work
The Bible isn’t just a collection of stories—it’s God’s blueprint for life.
If you want to know God’s will, start by knowing His Word. The more we immerse ourselves in Scripture, the more we understand what God desires for us.
What About Life’s Specific Questions?
You might be thinking, “But what about the personal decisions I need to make?”
While the Bible doesn’t tell you where to work or whom to marry by name, it does give principles for making wise decisions:
✅ Seek God’s kingdom first (Matthew 6:33)
✅ Surround yourself with wise counsel (Proverbs 15:22)
✅ Pray with confidence (James 1:5)
✅ Trust in God’s sovereignty (Romans 8:28)
God’s will is found in Scripture, and when we align our lives with His Word, we can make wise decisions with confidence.
But just as important as knowing where to look is knowing where not to look. That’s what we’ll cover in Part 3.
