UNDERSTANDING HIS WILL

Ephesians 5:17 NKJV "Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is."

King Solomon taught us the importance of understanding; he said to get wisdom, and to purchase understanding with all our possessions; to get understanding with all our effort.

There's a difference between knowing the will of God and understanding it. In this case, I'm talking about God's will for your life. For instance, a man may know that God wants him to do a particular thing but he has no understanding of the why, the effect, it's relevance to what God is doing globally, the timing, the how, and so on. Knowledge is really incomplete without understanding. A man can only explain and hold strongly on to what he understands.

As we prepare ourselves for the New Year and seek the will of God for our lives, our families and our nation, let's take time to also seek an understanding of His will. Let's approach the coming year differently; understanding His will.
