DOING GOD’S WILL
OLUBI JOHNSON
Matthew 12:49-50(KJV)
And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
John 1:13 KJV
Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Here ,the scripture reveals to us three wills:
1. The will of God the Father.
2. The will of man.
3. The will of the flesh.
As Christians, we are to align our wills with the will of God the Father and DO GOD’S WILL and not the will of the flesh, which really is the will of Satan operating through the sin-nature in the flesh: soul (will, mind, emotions) and body.
It is instructive to note that man’s will can either be subject to God’s will, or Satan’s will, through the sin-nature in the flesh and in the mind: THERE ARE NO OTHER OPTIONS!
The kernel of this article is to show us how to align with, and do, God’s will so that we will not be forced by the power of Satan in the air, mind and flesh to do Satan’s will.
Doing the will of God is only possible by releasing a sufficient measure of the power of God into our soul: will, mind, emotion and body.
How then do we get and release enough strength to do God’s will?
By becoming a man of God’s right hand (Ps. 80:17-18).
How can one become a man of God’s right hand, who He makes strong for Himself and so gives His life that will empower the person not to depart from His will?
By the blood, the Word and the Spirit, so hooking up to the intercessory prayers of the Lord Jesus at God’s right hand through praying in Spirit: in tongues and travail (1Cor. 14:2; Rom. 8:26; Eph. 6:18).
As we watch and pray in this manner consistently, we will not enter into temptation, and so ALWAYS DO THE WILL GOD!
