Living in God’s Will by Terri Copeland Pearsons Anyone with any sense should want to be in the will of God. Being in the will of God sums up the Christian’s goal in life. Walking daily in His will is the true mark of spirituality, and it’s not because finding His will is hard and only the “special ones” will ever know it. The truth is, we are all special ones. The cry of God’s heart is that we know His will. Accordingly, He has equipped us with all we need that’s necessary to both know that will and be able to do it; to discover His plan and fully, daily, walk it out. That equipping is called grace. Grace is so many things that it is everything. One way to sum it up is: Grace is the God-given power to be what God wants us to be, to do what God wants us to do and to have what God wants us to have. It is by grace we are allowed to know and by grace we have the capacity to grasp and understand (Ephesians 1:6-9, 17-18). How do we receive grace to know His will and do it? By faith: “For by grace are ye saved through faith” (Ephesians 2:8). A Look at Faith and Grace Here’s what faith in grace looks like: Faith believes God has given grace for this purpose and it is available. Faith responds to the grace given by receiving it—regardless of feelings of unworthiness. Faith believes that grace is sufficient to close the gap between our unworthiness and worthiness. Faith believes it can take, receive and possess as its own all that grace has provided. Furthermore, the very nature of faith is to respond to grace because it proceeds from grace. BVOV : 21
