What Is The Will Of God? |
||||||
The word most commonly used in the New Testament for "will," referring to God's will, is "thelema." This Greek word means a determination, a choice, a desire, a pleasure. By "God's will," Pastor Jack refers to that which God would desire for us--which is the very best (Psalm 84:11; Luke 12:32; II Peter 3:9). It is not talking about God having His hand on our lives, and that He will always be with us (Hebrews 13:5)--which He does, and He will. But there are times things will happen to us, that even though they are difficult, help to shape and direct us in the right way. We are not floundering around without a "future and a hope" (Jeremiah 29:11) |
