May God give us today the spirit of wisdom and revelation of His Word which is live and powerful.\r\n\r\nFor several days now we have been talking about how important it is to know and do God\u2019s will for his our lives. Knowing and doing God\u2019s will is important for every person because our\u00a0happiness on earth<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0our eternal destiny<\/strong>\u00a0depend on. God reveals His Word through His Word, the Bible.\r\n\r\nIt says in the Bible\u00a0that\r\n\r\n \r\n
\u00a0\u00abthe world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever\u00bb\u00a0(1 John, 2: 17).<\/h6>\r\n \r\n\r\nDid you notice who abides forever?\u00a0The one who does the will of God! So what happens to the others then? They will pass and disappear with this world. Only those who know and obey the will of God will enter the Kingdom of heaven. Here is why God\u2019s will is so important for every one of us. God\u2019s desire for His every child is\r\n\r\n \r\n
\u00a0\u00abthat he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God\u00bb\u00a0(1 Peter, 4: 2).<\/h6>\r\n \r\n\r\nBefore getting saved we lived long enough in the world according to the will of Gentiles giving ourselves into different lusts. But now God is calling us to be just as eager not for sin, but for doing the will of the One Who has created and saved us.\r\n\r\n \r\n
\u00abFor we have spend enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles \u2013 when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries. In regard to these, they think it strange that you do no turn with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you. They will give an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers. And above all things have fervent love for one another, for \u201elove will cover a multitude of sins\u201d. Be hospitable to one another without grumbling. As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good steward of the manifold grace of God\u00bb\u00a0(1 Peter, 4: 3-10).<\/h6>\r\n \r\n\r\nThis Scripture passage\u00a0says explicitly that we have lived long enough to do our own will. Stop denying the will of your Creator, because the end in close! We will all stand before the High Judge and answer for what we did with our lives.\r\n\r\nIf\u00a0we spent \u201eour past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles \u2013 when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries<\/em><\/strong>\u201d,<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0then now God wants us to do His will and \u00abhave fervent love for one another\u00bb, \u00abbe hospitable to one another without grumbling. As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good steward of the manifold grace of God\u00bb.<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\nAs we said before, a successful person is the one who knows what God wants him to do in his life and has dedicated his life for doing God\u2019s will. Human success is not measured by his social status, banc accounts, and influence in society, popularity or fame in this world. True success is measured by how successful he has been in doing God\u2019s will.\r\n\r\nThink about it today! God desires to give you true success that can be found in learning and doing God\u2019s will for your life. You are the one who determines what to do with your life: either seeking temporary pleasure and enjoyment or seeking the eternal values of God\u2019s Kingdom and His will for your life.\r\n\r\nGod has placed you on this earth for one purpose \u2013 to do God\u2019s will. So you have to ask yourself constantly: \u00abHow can I link what I am doing today with God\u2019s will for my life?\u00bb If you cannot give a convincing answer to this question, then you need to re-evaluate the direction your life has taken. You need to seek God to get His wisdom and understanding to change the situation. This, of course, does not mean that you must quit what you are doing or leave your job. Possibly, you just need to correct your approach, priorities and motives.\r\n\r\nGod can use you for His plan right where you are. You need to acknowledge the fact that no matter where you are today, your gifts can and must be used for the glory of God. Realize that the place where you are right now is a part of God\u2019s plan to do good works God intended you to do.\r\n\r\nLet\u2019s continue tomorrow!\r\n\r\nI wish you abundant God\u2019s blessings!\r\n\r\nPastor Rufus Ajiboye","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As we said before, a successful person is the one who knows what God wants him to do in his life and has dedicated his life for doing God\u2019s will.
