The Alpha of the Sovereign Will of God

UV 3111/10000 The Alpha of the Sovereign Will of God
And this will we do, if God permit
Hebrews 6 v 3
When we willingly bring our free wills in submission to the will of God, heaven’s favour or grace is obtained for our decisions and plans. St James in similar vein wrote that we should not say we will do this or that or go here or there but instead say that if it is the will of God we will live and do this or that. St Paul sought the will of God for everything that he did whether it was his journey to a particular place or something else related to his ministry. As we yield our wills to Him, He will increase the yield of our lives. We should not hold onto our stubborn views but have utmost respect or reverence for the sovereignty of the Lord at any time of our lives.
The way to bring our plans and actions as well as emotions in alignment with the Lord is to pray before the start of any enterprise or project or plan to reveal His will and to bless what we are about to do. We should also apply the principles and precepts we have learnt this far from our study of the Word. We can also seek the prayer support and counsel of godly people in our circle. The litmus test is if at the end of the process of so seeking the will of God, we have the peace of Jesus, the peace that confirms that it is in alignment with His perfect will. If the dilemma disturbs our minds and spirits, we should desist from proceeding. The Lord who alone has complete knowledge of us, of our situations and of the future will guide us to the very end of our lives. He promises never to leave us alone or let us down or forsake us. He becomes literally a partner with us in what we are attempting and orchestrates events and situations in ways no man can ever predict. He eventually crowns our efforts with success in many cases but even if He lets us fail, there would be something that we gain in terms of wisdom and faith which could not have been learnt in some other way.
Once we have committed to action, we should trust in the Lord with all our hearts. The Holy Spirit will whisper in our inner ears to walk in this path or to take a certain step. We should be always sensitive to the voice of the Lord and comply immediately even as Abraham obeyed the Lord implicitly, without hesitation and with fullness of faith. The Lord in His time will bring our plans to fruition or success. At no stage should we doubt or waver for St James says that a man who is wavering or vacillating cannot hope to receive any blessing.
