No, following God’s Will in our life won’t be easy—it may call for us to suffer—but following God’s Will will pay great dividends, both in this life and especially in the life to come.

And so this morning, let me ask you this question: Are you seeking to find a way in the Will of God, as it pertains to your plans and your actions in this life? I hope you are!

We extend the invitation to you this morning. This is the Lord’s invitation, and let me tell you that His Will for you, if you are not a Christian, is that you will be saved. Peter said that God does not desire that, “any should perish, but that all should come to repentance,” 2 Peter 3, verse 9. And so, in His “proclaimed Will,” He has revealed to us what it takes to be saved. And that is if you believe that He is the Christ, the Son of God, that He died for your sins, and if you are willing to confess His Name and repent of your sins, and then be obedient in baptism, you can become a child of God. You can be saved! Then of course, our desire is to understand and pursue the Will of God throughout the remaining days of our life—to live faithfully to Him, that we might look forward to that crown of life.

If you are with us today and you are an erring Christian, if you have not been submissive to the Will of God, then we urge you to change. And if we can encourage you, if we can lift you up by our prayers and words of encouragement this day, this invitation is for you as well. Whatever your need, would you come as we stand together and sing.
