The Gospel of Matthew
You Can Know The Will Of God
And it’s not as hard as you think to find out God’s will for your life
“Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” — Matthew 6:10 (NIV)
I have said the Lord’s prayer countless times in my life. At every church service, I grew up going to and before every football game I ever played. It was a staple to my life, though I had no idea what it really meant.
Honestly, I simply chanted it because I learned it in Sunday School and it was part of our pre-game routine for football.
Yet, this small part of scripture unlocks something that we all want to know:
What is God’s will?
Seriously. When I first became a Christian in college, I was plagued with trying to understand God’s will for my life. Was I supposed to stay in my major or career? What was I going to do with my life? Would become a missionary or pastor instead?
I had tons of questions and would get this weird canned response from other Christians, “follow God’s will.”
