This is the Will of God
First Thessalonians 5:16-18 “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
I get a lot of inquiries from people wanting to know what the will of God is. If they do a simple search on a Bible website or in their own Bible concordance using “will” plus “God” they’ll easily find His revealed will. First Thessalonians 5:16-18 are some of those where we are to “rejoice.” How often? Always! And we are to “pray without ceasing (always!). And, like Ephesians 5:20, we are commanded to “give thanks in all circumstances.” There it is…that is the will of God; to rejoice, to pray, and to give thanks….always! I can’t tell anyone what God’s hidden will is but they’ll never find His hidden will until they obey His revealed will (Eph 5:20, 1 Thess 5:16-18). That is how “you may discern what is the will of God” (Rom 12:2b).
