Inspiration: God's Will



Ephesians 1:11-14
New International Version (NIV)
 11 In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.


Revelation 4:11
New International Version (NIV)
11 “You are worthy, our Lord and God,
   to receive glory and honor and power,
for you created all things,
   and by your will they were created
   and have their being.”



I do declare myself as a Christian, meaning I believe and love God and his son Jesus Christ who died for our sins, but rose again. My great- grand father lived to be 102 and died in his right mind. My mother asked him why he had lived so long he replied “Every night I thanked God for this day and in his will to give me another to serve him”. That’s it. Sometimes we don’t know what we want to do with our life, but if you follow his will everything will be set in place. Further explaining God’s will means following  the ten commandments ,which is his moral will and following his severity will , that can be read in Ephesians 1: 11-14 and  Revelations 4:11. God does not control everything he is In control of everything. Think about it. In other words God’s gives you your own mind to make decisions ( right or wrong), but he decides the outcome.
