Knowing My Will

Do you want to know what My Will is? Look at My law. Do you want to know what the will of your leaders are? Look at their laws. Look at their priorities. Look at their patterns of behavior. Look at their speeches. Look at the ways they handle time, resources, and relationships. When you choose a leader to follow, you choose his will that is manifested through his “ways.”

Now look at My ways. Look at My Kingdom. Do you want My Will in all things? Or do you want My Will only when it does not interfere with your own. Learn to distinguish between My Will and yours. Learn to search your thoughts until you discover whose will they spring from. Then pray as My Son taught, “Your Will be done.”  Trust in the goodness and kindness of My Will. Distrust your own will.

Moses was My friend. He chose My Will over his own. He chose My Will over the will of his own people. He chose to endure their anger, jealousy, and revenge because he wanted Me and My Will more. I and My Will are not separate. Choose My Will and you choose Me.

While reading Psalm 119, substitute the word, “will,” for “decrees, laws, precepts, and commands.”
