Living According to God’s Will: A Path to Spiritual Fulfillment
As a Christian, the question inevitably arises: is it possible to live according to God’s will? The belief that every action is 'God’s will' can be both comforting and challenging. This article explores how one can align their life with God’s will and the steps towards achieving this spiritual fulfillment.
The Foundation of Living According to God’s Will
Anyone can live according to God’s will. It all starts with acknowledging that God is both the Creator and the Potter. As His creation, we, too, are shaped to become more like Jesus. This transformation begins with daily communion, which is essentially embracing and internalizing the life of Christ. Through this practice, one can begin to walk more in the spirit—following the divine will—rather than the flesh.
Communing with Christ can be facilitated through various means, such as drinking Christ's blood as symbolized in the Eucharist and actively engaging in the life of prayer. Videos like those shared by Derek Prince on Proclamation, and watching viral renditions of Psalms, can be powerful tools in this journey. The consistent application of these practices can gradually lead to a deeper understanding of God's word, culminating in a Life of Faith.
Understanding God’s Will
The question, 'What is God’s will for human kind?' leads us to the importance of gaining knowledge about God. Central to this are the teachings found in the Bible. Engaging with God's word is just the start; it requires a profound and continual study, much like learning a profession such as music or chemistry. The process of building faith through study creates a strong foundation for discerning God’s will.
From this foundation, one can explore what God loves and what He hates. This comprehension leads to the next steps of repentance—eliminating harmful behaviors and influences, and conversion—embracing Christ's teachings. Dedication, through baptism, then becomes a public declaration of one's commitment to God. Finally, following through with Jehovah's will involves active participation in His mission of spreading the good news of the Kingdom and teaching others about His teachings.
Practical Steps to Follow God’s Will
Matthew 24:14 states, “And this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations and then the end will come.” Matthew 28:19-20 further emphasizes the importance of spreading God’s message: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.”
