I trust that through these daily messages you are receiving encouragement and inspiration.\r\n\r\nWe have been talking about how important it is to record the revelations and visions that God gives you so that you can know and do the will of God. We were born to fulfill God\u2019s will on earth. And it is only when we do than can we enjoy and walk in divine protection, prosperity and satisfaction in this life. Today I would like us to\u00a0 discuss\u00a0Paul\u2019s prayer for his disciples.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nApostle Paul knew how important it was to do God\u2019s will, so he consistently prayed for his spiritual children to be filled with the knowledge of God\u2019s will in all spiritual understanding. Paul realized that the effectiveness and\u00a0 fruitfulness of our life here on earth is directly linked to our understanding\u00a0 of God\u2019s will for your live and our attitude towards that. For this very reason he unceasingly prayed for his disciples not only to discover the will of God for themselves but also to rightly relate to the will of God.\r\n\r\nThe following passage of the Scripture is one of the examples of Paul\u2019s prayers for his disciples. In this prayer pattern we can dig out some important lessons on how to fulfill our mission in life.\r\n\r\n \r\n
\u00ab<\/span>For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins<\/strong><\/span>\u00bb\u00a0(<\/span>Colossians, 1:9 -14<\/span>).<\/span><\/h6>\r\n\u00a0<\/strong>According to\u00a0 the above\u00a0 passage, for a believer to walk worthy of God and be fruitful in every good work, he first must be filled with the knowledge of God\u2019s will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. The fruitfulness of a Christian starts with\u00a0 the discovery of God\u2019s will in all areas of life and readiness to fulfill it.\r\n\r\n \r\n
\u00abAnd do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God\u00bb\u00a0(Romans, 12: 2).<\/span><\/h6>\r\n \r\n\r\nWe are filled with the knowledge of God\u2019s will through renewing our minds by the Word of God. Through the renewal of our minds we learn to think as God thinks and look at our lives through His eyes. You won\u2019t be able to please God if you are not doing His will for your life. In order to do His will you first need to discover it. That is why wise people who want to bear real fruits for God through their lives devote themselves to\u00a0 the discovery and comprehension of what God wants to do in their lives and through their lives. As I have mentioned before, this is possible when a person begins to renew his or her mind through personal fellowship with God, prayer and intensive study of\u00a0 God\u2019s Word.\r\n\r\nPaul said that wise and understanding people use the time given to them\u00a0 by God to learn God\u2019s will and to be filled with the Holy Spirit,\u00a0 thus becoming effective in their lives.\r\n\r\n \r\n
\u00abSee then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ\u00bb\u00a0(Ephesians, 5: 15-20).<\/span><\/h6>\r\n \r\n\r\nSo the effectiveness and the\u00a0 fruitfulness of\u00a0 a child of God begins with the discovery of God\u2019s will. If you do not know\u00a0 yet what the\u00a0 will of God is\u00a0 for your life, then your goal at this point is to spend time wisely to discover \u201ethat good and acceptable and perfect will of God<\/em><\/strong>\u201d<\/em>\u00a0for yourself.<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\nWe will continue\u00a0 from here tomorrow!\r\n\r\nMay God bless you this day!\r\n\r\nPastor Rufus Ajiboye","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u00abAnd do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God\u00bb (Romans, 12: 2).\r\n\r\nWe are filled with the knowledge of God\u2019s will through renewing our minds by the Word of God.
