Filled with the knowledge of HIS WILL

Col 1:7  As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
Col 1:8  Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
Col 1:9  For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

Desire that you might be FILLED with the KNOWLEDGE of HIS WILL-  in ALL WISDOM and SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING.

Dan 4:35  And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth ACCORDING TO HIS WILL in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

He does according to HIS WILL- where? IN THE ARMY OF HEAVEN and AMONG the INHABITANTS of the EARTH.

NONE CAN STAY HIS HAND, or say unto Him,  WHAT DOEST THOU?

God's will - WILL be done. God's will is done in HEAVEN. God's will is done here on earth.

We have a part in all this because we can choose to FIGHT against God's will or desire God's will be done in our lives.  God's will cannot be stopped- but we choose whether or not to accept His will or our own.

Joh 7:17  If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.

Joh 9:31  Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

Those who choose to not accept God as their Creator, their Redeemer, cannot expect God to hear them. Will He? Often times God does hear the cry of a sinner who is in a position to believe in Him and choose His will. But the sinner than wants NOTHING to do with God, let alone chooses to worship Him or do God's will, has NO reason to believe God will hear Him.

God will hear the voice of those who worship Him and seek to do His will. Does this mean everything they ask for will be given? Yes. It means they are trusting in God to know the end from the beginning and to know what His followers, His worshipers need. They will receive everything they ask for when they ask ultimately for GOD'S WILL to be DONE and not their own.

Act 22:14  And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.

Eph 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Eph 1:4  According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
Eph 1:5  Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of HIS WILL,
Eph 1:6  To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
Eph 1:7  In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Eph 1:8  Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;
Eph 1:9  Having made known unto us the mystery of HIS WILL, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:
Eph 1:10  That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him

Heb 13:21  Make you perfect in every good work to do HIS WILL, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

1Jn 5:14  And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to HIS WILL, he heareth us

Psa 143:10  TEACH ME TO DO THY WILL, for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

Rom 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, WILL OF GOD.

Eph 5:17  Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the WILL OF THE LORD IS.

Heb 10:36  For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done THE WILL OF GOD, ye might receive the promise.

1Jn 2:17  And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that DOETH THE WILL OF GOD  abideth for ever.

Desire that you might be FILLED with the KNOWLEDGE of HIS WILL-  in ALL WISDOM and SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING.

Is it any wonder the men of God DESIRE that others that are seeking Christ be FILLED with the KNOWLEDGE OF HIS WILL? 

Being filled with the knowledge of His will in ALL WISDOM, and in ALL SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING. This gift is amazing. To be filled with the knowledge of HIS WILL. How often we desire to know the WILL of God. We falter, we worry, we wonder and but we can KNOW the will of God. The problem is not many want to know the will of God because it is contrary to their own will. They say they want God's will but when it interferes with their own selfish will they change their minds pretty quickly.

To be filled with the knowledge of God's WILL in all wisdom and spiritual understanding is the ultimate gift.

This is a gift to be prayed for, we all need to this, all of us! Less of our will more of God's- in fact - ALL God's will!

In His LOVE always!
