Psalm 143:10 says, “Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Let your good spirit lead me on level ground.” Is this your heartbeat? Do you ask the Lord to teach you what His will is for your life? You and I pray for and about many things. We all have personal desires that we are seeking God to answer. However, are our prayer requests lining up with God’s will for our lives? 1 John 2:5-6 reminds us, “But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.” We should love God enough to deny ourselves and die to our will and our desires.

    Will we too take delight in doing God’s will as David says in Psalm 40:8? You and I have tried so many things our own way. It is now time for us to die to our way and our will for the perfect will of the one who ransomed us.
