Hallelujah Devotion – 6. The WILL of God
“Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.” Mat 6:10
The Will of God:
The Teachings of Christ came through Divine revelation from His Father. It was not acquired through reading & studying but through the revelation of the Holy Spirit within.
In His humiliation, God’s Mediator, being God’s Servant, He relied completely on the Father to do as prophesied in Deu18:18 “to put His words into His mouth, & speak all that I command Him”
Joh 7:16-18
(16) Jesus answered… “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.
(17) If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.
(18) He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the
One who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.
Joh 5:19-20
(19) Jesus answered “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.
(20) For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.
Joh 5:30
(30) I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.
PRAYER
Father,
As we meditate on these Scriptures, we humbly come to bow in absolute surrender.
To ask that You will lead us to do Your will in what You reveal through Your precious Holy Spirit, our Helper…:
“Teach me to do Your will, For You are my God; Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.” Psa 143:10.
For, “I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart.” Psa 40:8
We desire to be mindful of You, Your ways, Your guidance, Your voice and Your leading NOT to follow our own thinking, or be tempted to fall into the temporal-bound, rat race-thinking of the world;
“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Rom 12:2
“Not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart” Eph 6:6
Our deepest desire is to refrain from our own knowledge, “know-how”, familiar ways & words regarding You & Your kingdom.
To seek You through Divine revelation in the kairos moment. That the authenticity of the Holy Spirit – who is the Translator of Your will, guide us in our need for every situation & moment.
Our hearts to melt into Your will, to discern Your heart. Rising up in Your utmost Faith, Strength & Joy through the righteousness & right standing in our Lord Jesus.
To be able to execute Your will as we declare, speak & do with all boldness through Your council & grace.
Therefore, we pray
“If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.” Jas 4:15
We come to pray YOUR heart back to You.
BENEDICTION
Heb 13:20-21
Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever.
Amen & Amen.
