You Know God's Will

God's will has been revealed to you as a believer in our Lord Jesus Christ. God's will is love, mercy, grace, and truth revealed in Christ. The mystery of God's will has been revealed for every believer to know, "having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself" (Ephesians 1:9).

The will of God is good, because God is good. You can say as a believer, "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life" (Psalm 23:6). Believe in God's goodness. In a world where evil is found everywhere, God is good. Don't dare blame evil on God. Not only is God good, but "we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28).

The mystery of God's will has been revealed to you in the Bible. Jesus came into this world to do God the Father's will in word and deed. Jesus not only did the will of God, but Jesus is the will of God. In any circumstance of life, you know God's will. Ask yourself, what would Jesus do? The mystery of God's will is revealed to you in Christ.

God's will is revealed in your heart as a believer through the Holy Spirit. God's will is the fruit of the Spirit. "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control" (Galatians 5:22-23). You know God's will.
