Tag: Bible verses about God’s plans for us

Psalm 37:4-5 (NKJV) 4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.

“What is God’s will for my life?”

That is probably the question we get asked the most on a regular basis. So many believers want to know what God’s plan is for them.

This is a legitimate question. There’s no doubt about it. But most times, it’s a question asked out of the proper timing, and sometimes even with the wrong motives.

Let me explain.

Because of a lack of understanding, many believers fall into this same trap. They get thinking, and it dawns on them that they don’t know “God’s plan” for their life or His “will for them”.

Many people will try to figure it out in various ways. Some will read lots of books. Some will ask people they know. Some might watch videos published by people claiming to know how to find God’s will for your life.

Honestly though, these things are almost all a waste of time.

Why? Because spending time chasing this, instead of spending time pursuing God, will keep us from ever growing into who God wants us to be.

You see, the key to finding God’s will and purpose for your life revolves 100% around learning of God and building your relationship with Him first!

As we learn of Him, and as we get a better understanding of how He wants us to live, we also learn who He wants us to be. And who He wants us to be is the key that unlocks the door to finding out what he wants us to do with our lives.

It’s all part of a tidy little package that is often overlooked, as we keep thinking for some reason that God is going to pop up in front of us one day and say’ “Here’s my plan for your life”, and then lay it all out in a well-marked, easy-to-read road map that shows us every single step to take.

Spend time in His word. Read, study, and read some more. Take it in. Absorb it. Read it some more, and get understanding.

Talk to Him. Listen to Him. Talk to Him some more. And then do what He says to do, even in the simplest things.

As we do this, He will begin to lead us, step by step. And each step that we take will lead us closer and closer to “His will for our lives”.
