Today, Scripture points are
shared in reply to a question on doing the will of GOD. All that exists is an
expression of divine will, and a putting forth of eternal Deity. However, all
the things of GOD are not in keeping with the affairs of mankind upon the earth
as carnal, material, and social beings. To be in the most complete and correct
relationship with the Creator, there must be divine substance; and the living
must apply sacred knowledge and conform to standards that have been generated by
divinity. Such finite tools as intellect, logic, philosophy, and science are
not sufficient to eliminate sin that may dominate awareness and self-will in the
created. Readers are encouraged to recall again the following from the Bible,
and the discussion below: Micah 6: 6-9, King James Version (KJV): 6 Wherewith
shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before the high
God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old? 7
Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten
thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the
fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? 8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is
good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do
justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? 9 The LORD’s voice crieth unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see
thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it. Also, John 6: 38-40,
KJV: 38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of
him that sent me. 39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of
all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again
at the last day. 40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one
which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I
will raise him up at the last day. Hebrews 13: 20-21, KJV: 20 Now the God of
peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of
the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 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. The

What is the will of God?
Jesus said that not everyone who
professes him with words will enter the Kingdom, but those who actually do the
will of God. So it's not about saying, it's about doing.
What specifically does it mean, being a preacher?
Doing charity work? Going on missionary journeys? Fighting the Illuminati? Is
there a general thing to do like mimicking Jesus or Paul's works? Or is there a
specific thing to do for each individual's life? What's the bible
say?
THE GOLDEN ARROW: Wherefore,
my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to
wrath: For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. Wherefore
lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with
meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. But be ye doers
of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a
hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural
face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway
forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of
liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of
the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. (James 1: 19-25,
KJV)

Sin Is Willful? (10/20/2015); Finite Will, Self-will and Sin? (06/01/2015);
Flammable? (05/25/2015); The Philosophy of Free Will? (04/08/2014); Freewill is
Finite (06/30/2013); GOD Intervenes? (07/01/2013); No Free Will (10/19/2010);

“Kristofferson”, Christian believers generally
agree that the will of GOD appears and is made visible to created beings and
living creatures through existence, form, divine law, the active presence of
Deity, eternal purpose, and sovereign utterance. The character and nature that
generate expression, exchange, and interaction among and within the living has
been put forth by divinity; and has been deposited or imparted to all life forms
(e.g., angels, animals, birds, insects, mankind, sacred beasts of heaven) as
awareness, independence (we say, completeness; identity; integrity of being),
and self-will. Only GOD is eternal, immortal, immutable, and omnipotent. Ones
spirit (we also say, breath, life essence, spark of life, word) is most
correctly acknowledged, made known, and revealed through action and response
that may alter, destroy, direct, preserve and otherwise respond to themselves,
their environment, and objects within their spheres of life. To carry out or
perform the will of GOD is to manifest and “prove” divine being (i.e.,
demonstrate; be evidence of; present the divine “image”; serve as a form and
vessel for incarnation of sacred Spirit). Consider again the following verses
from the holy writings:
(1.) Proverbs 20: 11, King James Version (KJV):
11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it
be right.
(2.) John 7: 17, KJV: 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.
(3.) Leviticus 20: 6-8, KJV: 6 And the soul that
turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring
after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from
among his people. 7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am
the LORD your God. 8 And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD
which sanctify you.
(4.) Romans 12: 1-2, KJV: 1 I beseech you
therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living
sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 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.
(5.) 1st Peter 2: 13-16, KJV: 13 Submit
yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the
king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for
the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. 15 For so
is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of
foolish men: 16 As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of
maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
(6.) 1st Peter 3: 17-18, KJV: 17 For it is
better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil
doing. 18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust,
that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by
the Spirit:
There are many other verses that should be
carefully considered, correctly understood, and spiritually apprehended. (For
example, (7.) 1st Thessalonians 4: 1-5, KJV: 1 Furthermore then we beseech
you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us
how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 2 For
ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will
of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4
That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification
and honour; 5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know
not God:) ) Even so, I trust this fragment will be useful. Be it unto you
according to your faith.
