Decision Series: What is God’s Will and How Do I Discover It?

Decision Series: What is God’s Will and How Do I Discover It?

Judges 6:36-40
Questions we ask:
What should be my college major?
Should I take this job?
Is this house the right investment?
Should I marry him/her?
What direction should I take in life?

We make many decision each day without thinking, but other decisions can paralyze us.

We all wrestle with whether God ahas a specifically detailed, step by step plan for our lives, and how we discover that plan.

Reasons we wrestle with making decisions.
1. We want to please God.
2. We want everything to be perfect.
3. We have too many choices.

To not make any decision at all is actually a decision you have made.

Does God actually have a will? And, if so what do we mean when we talk about the will of God.

Does God have an absolutely detailed step by step plan for my life? Is every step set out by God?

If God has such a plan, how do I discover God’s will for my life and what it is?

We are afraid to take responsibility for our decisions.
