When you want to know God's will in making a particular decision you may find it helpful to consider these 6 things:
1. The Word -- Principles in the Word will cover any topic. Psalm 119:96
Example: There is nothing in the Bible about which job you should take, but Titus 3:14 tells us you should WORK and it should be HONEST work.
2. Counsel -- Proverbs 15:22, 11:14
But remember here that no matter what counsel you get YOU are responsible for your decision.
3. Prayer -- Psalm 143:10, Prov. 3:5,6
4. Wisdom -- James 1:5
5. Trust the promises -- Prov. 3:5,6 16:9
6. Peace -- Isaiah 32:17
Often the reason we do not have peace is because we do not trust the promises.
How do we test and PROVE what the will of God is? Romans 12:1,2
It is good to remember that, more than anything else, God's will for you is the following:
A. I Thes. 5:18
B. I Peter 2:15
C. I Thes. 4:3
