Ep. 338: Tools To Help You Make Decisions When You Don’t Know God’s Will
Manage episode 371397040 series 2916671
Where the Bible is clear about God’s will, we must obey. But what about the thousands of choices we have in life where there doesn’t seem to be specific clarity in God’s Word? Do we pause and wait to hear the voice of the Lord? What about the people who seem to constantly say “God told me this?” Are we not walking with Jesus because we don’t have a steady stream of “God told me this?”
As we continue our series Knowing and Doing God’s Will, Jay highlights the many tools God has given us to make wise choices in areas where there are not specific commands from the Lord in Scripture. Borrowing the wisdom of Gary Freison and his book “Decision Making and the Will of God”, Jay walk through the different gifts God has given us that can serve as guideposts for decision making.
Listen as Jay shares how we can make wise decisions using
The Bible
An Open or Closed Door
Mature Council
A Fleece
Inner Peace or Tension
An alignment of passion, skills, and opportunity
Common Sense
With these gifts, God has given us plenty of resources to make healthy, wise, God-honoring decisions every day of our lives.
