Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that use their tongues, and say, He saith. Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the Lord, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit these people at all, saith the Lord. (Jeremiah 23:31-32).

I can tell you with absolutely certainty that there are things God has told me directly. I will also say though, that there are a great many possibilities that may be within God's Will, but are completely optional and He leaves them to my choice. In particular, I do believe God gave me a choice as to who my wife would be.

I just started reading a book about this subject! Just Do Something by Kevin DeYoung and I’m blown away that I never knew this! I come from a Catholic and charismatic background (was saved late in life) but recently started studying scripture and realizing that all I’ve been taught is wrong! So thankful for these biblical teachings for us who came into the faith with no biblical knowledge!

Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber, nor sleep overtake Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And they will never compass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.

Listening to Proverbs helps much to find the will of God for ones life for instance one Proverb says the integrity of the upright will guide them. God loves uprightness and holiness and each Christian must always take the path in life that accords with uprightness integrity uprightness and holiness.

80 years old and she's never read 1 Corinthians 7? I wish pastors would not use examples like this. Her situation is specifically and clearly addressed in Scripture. I'm not saying obeying it is easy! I'm just saying it's clear. The other things are the hard ones, where you have to choose between options that all seem to be within the guidelines given by Scripture. I wish I had heard teaching like this when I got saved at 18. I was at that tumultuous stage where you're ending high school and having to make huge decisions that will affect the rest of your life: Should I go to college? If so, where? What should I study? Should I just find a job? What job? Where should live? On and on. I was newly saved so I was still new to reading the Bible. But I desperately wanted to do God's will. I ended up being more passive than maybe I should have been. I was paralyzed with fear of making a wrong decision. I prayed and prayed, but clear direction didn't seem to happen. Now I'm my 50s and my life has gone nowhere. It's so depressing.

God is not there to cater to you every moment of your life lol He is refining for Himself a people a bride. You cannot look at yourself bit on Christ. You must be born again of the spirit. The western revivalist construct of getting saved by ones own prayer can be a good start but it doesnt entitle you to a perfect life full of blessings.

"Knowing the Will of God for Your Life" Yes kind Sir...one could follow Paul's (and all the other "Gospel" writers) espousal's in say Ephesians 6:16-20 (and all the other Gospel writings)...and achieve what they were trying to say. However... There is a much easier and faster way; and even more; IF they simply bring Jesus (who IS God Almighty) closer to them. And pray often sincerely (every day) to Jesus ALONE; and stop trying to do it ourselves. And put it ALL on Jesus. Oh indeed Yes! I believe He loves that! Where Jesus runs interference; between satan and us; when we pray sincerely these words... Matthew 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. And then all of the Euphemistic words Paul wrote (and other writings); become moot (even though Paul is the greatest messenger of Jesus' Gospel there will ever be). But even then; when on going directly to Jesus; we achieve MUCH more! Now I tried their ways to do what God (who IS Jesus) wanted us to do. For... 69 yrs of my reading my bible (beginning in 1941); I was hanging on to what every writer of my bible wrote. And, in essence, Jesus was FAR away. For I used the word "God" and my bible instead of Jesus. NOT letting ANY one know who was my true God (that was Jesus). But 15 yrs ago that ALL changed... I no longer "first": open my bible. NO! Now, I pray to Jesus first sincerely and often; that He will give me Wisdom, Understanding and the Truth. Thus today I Have Jesus right WITH me all day, every day. And believe this or not... ...My life has much more joy, peace, MORE money than I ever could fathom; happiness so incredible; I can't describe. With NO "worries" any more. Nor do I care. Because I have Jesus (the ONLY true God) with me; no matter where I am. And I talk/and pray to Him often; every day and often. Praise His Holy Name. Try it Brethren. It WORKS.. ..In any case kind Sir, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!.

Ezekiel 24:14 I the Lord have said the word and I will do it; This is God's Will for Life. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Jeremiah 14:14 Then the LORD said, “These prophets are telling lies in my name. I did not send them or tell them to speak. I did not give them any messages. They prophesy of visions and revelations they have never seen or heard. They speak foolishness made up in their own lying hearts. Jeremiah 27:15 For I have not sent them,' declares the LORD, 'and yet they are prophesying falsely in My name; therefore I will banish you and you will perish--you and the prophets who prophesy to you.'" And they will say; ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ Not only will you need this information for yourself, but you want to share this with others. These are not fables , but Divine commands. Who to believe GOD or your Pastor ???
