THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU!

THESSALONIANS 5: 16-17-18

"Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances. THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU, who belong to Jesus Christ!"

Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say rejoice! Are you always joyful? Pray without ceasing and in all things. Do you pray about everything and never stop praying? Do you thank God no matter what the circumstances are in your life? No hesitation before you answer, does this describe you? THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU, if you have been Saved by Jesus Christ the Lord God! Have you wondered what you would have to do to be in the Lord's will every day. Here is the answer to your question. You will need to commit to rejoice in the Lord always. You will need to make it a habit to never stop praying to God about everything in your life. You will need to give thanks to the Lord for all He has done for you and all He has given you! Do you belong to Jesus Christ? Then do His will!

Each of us should be happy and joyful in our faith. Do not forget that we were all lost in our sin until Jesus Christ Saved us and gave us eternal life. As a child of God we are not of this world but we are just passing through and we are to spend eternity in Heaven with the Lord. What joy we should experience. This is the gift that keeps on giving forever. Knowing all this we should never stop praying to our Lord about everything and anything. He wants us to go to Him first in all things. We must be thankful for our Salvation and eternal life and we must be thankful in each and every circumstance that we find ourselves in at the moment. In bad times it is useful to remember that the Good Times are coming and they are eternal. It is easy to do if you realize that THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU!

It may seem difficult to be thankful at a time of death or illness in your family. When a calamity strikes we must never lose sight of the eternal perspective and the fact that all of our troubles are merely a moment in time. Imagine the eternal aspect of your Saved Soul, there will be no death, no illness, no weeping and no wailing. The Lord has a perfect plan for your life and you may not understand it at a given moment but all your questions will be answered when you take up your mansion in Heaven and there you will be with the Lord always! God will reveal all to you at that time. You will look back at your earthly experience as a moment in time and you will understand all that occurred in your life. There is peace on earth to men in God's will, are you one of them? Keep praying that the Lord will explain that THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU!
