Understanding The Will

Therefore do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is. - Ephesians 5:17

Knowing the will of God pertaining to life and godliness will keep you rooted and grounded, unwavering in the midst of the storm and in the face of circumstance. Adversity will come. Persecutions will come. The devil will shoot his flaming arrows and fiery darts in regards to health, wealth, protection, provision and security, etc. Our job is to hold up the shield of faith. The problem is many Christians either don't know what they believe, or believe contrary to the word and promises of God. Many try to believe for a while, but seeing the circumstances and the trials and casualties of those around them, they begin to walk by sight rather than by faith and are soon found shipwrecked in regards to their faith and unable to stand. Being more convinced by what they see around them, rather than what God has written to them. Jesus compared this type of person to a seed on rocky ground with no root. They receive the word gladly, but when the fiery darts come, they immediately fall away. The only way to develop a deep root is to be a Joshua - meditate on the word day and night, then you will have a firm grasp on what the will of the Lord is. Don't let the negative circumstance around you cause you to put your faith in what you see.

It is my prayer that God will Bless you EXCEEDINGLY, ABUNDANTLY, ABOVE ALL YOU CAN ASK OR THINK!
