World actually throws numerous ups and downs in life. We are tossed and troubled and try to seek a way out. Bring the matter, as such to the feet of God which is our routine procedure. When we pray, sometimes we are unable to know the will of God- besides we are confused and worried a lot, to find out the perfect will of God
“I am the LORD your God,
who teaches you what is best for you,
who directs you in the way you should go.
If only you had paid attention to my commands,
your peace would have been like a river,
your well-being like the waves of the sea.Isaiah48:17-18

Almighty Father leads His children according to His will. But we have our own wishes and desires imprinted in mind (may be totally something different from the will of God. Our dreams and liking dominate and blocks us to know God’s will.)
Knowing the will of God is an art for a child of God. Route may vary as per individual’s position and his relationship with God.
We must realize and understand two aspects of knowing God’s will.
- The General will of God and
- Specific will of God.
The General will of God is very basic in nature and applicable to all Christian who are accustomed with- Praises and worships, Sanctification and doing good things and involvement in church activities etc.
“…..It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: 1 Thessalonians 4:3
“…..give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians5:8
For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people. 1 Peter 2:15
When we obey the commandments and faithful in our dealings, with a clean heart, then we can recognize the specific will of God .It is not that easy to locate or to indentify the will of God. You need a complete surrender to follow the way God shows you- in your life, in the family, for children’s life and anything.
Four important guidelines are there to understand the specific will of God.
- Trust the word of God- from the Holy Bible. –the promises God gives you and the teaching of His word. God‘s word is the final verdict and confirmation in our life.
- Listen to your mind and the intuition: (the inner voice) will tell you or rather lead you, with an impression in mind and heart. The inner voice is God’s voice speaking to you. Learn to listen to your inner voice, it will never fail you (when to listen to the word of God) Do not set aside the intuitive power in you.
- · Guidance from Godly people: (fellowship) and prophetic words may put us in the right track- to identify God’s will. It will confirm the matters.
- · The circumstantial evidence: It matters a lot because God only prepares and orders the circumstances, which is made favorable to us. We won’t have any obstacle on the way to reach the goal. It is the most confirmatory matter.
If you find that all the four aspects are aligned in a line- we can be sure and can proceed with the matter.
One thing you must feel, when you confirm any matter that your heart must be filled with peace.
Inner peace and contentment is the final result that God is working for you , in your matters.
