God's will

[RebekahDavid]

ifoneis interested in knowing God's will for one's life start here:

God's will 1

God's will 2

as for color of shirts, which laundry soap and other such things, just follow God's leading if something is dangerous God will let you know. don't drive yourself crazy trying to figure out if you should where one thing over another or buy one product over another, just tune your ears to hear God's voice and He will help out.

Blessings archaeologist2,

i think there is a typo on the first link

there is also something the Lord gave us called common sense, and that combined with the guiding of the Holy Spirit, your going to make right choices.

I mean showering is obviously viable. there are instances in the bible where people went to bathe and wash if you really need to see that to do it. Not only that but we are representatives of Christ on the earth and need to present ourselves that way. (i know you are being hypothetical haha but im just giving an example)

Pretty much every single little thing you could imagine is in the bible. If you look hard enough for it. so most things are covered. as far as living day to day goes, the more you know the word, and the more you know God and the leading of the Holy Spirit within you, the better prepared you are going to be for those every day decisions.

God prompts me all the time. Dont drive this way to work today, go the other way instead. and in my obedience i avoid a crash or being late to work because of terrible traffic. Or not going somewhere when you have that check in your spirit, or saying something to that person when you know God really is telling you to..... etc etc.

God can give you wisdom on the most simple things, even doing your food shopping can be a much more profitable time if your in tune with the Spirit of God. and you dont need to be some super-spirit-freak who is all heeby-jeeby-oooh Jesus! lol... its not about acting all spiritual and oh i cant even pee without Gods okay on it. Its about being in tune with Him. Being in consistant communion with Him. then you will find yourself making the right choices more and more.

but like i said, the more you know of the word, the more you can live in Gods will for you.

know that bible like you know nothing else. Spend time in His prescence and you will not even HAVE to ask this question.

its the only way to live my friend!

I have a question:

How do I know that it's the will of God for me to do things like taking a shower, or hanging with friends, or playing a board game, or doing anything which people normally do in a day? Is it enough to say, "The bible doesn't say anything against this, so it must be fine" ?

I know that we should always seek the will of God first and foremost, but I get confused: does this mean we should ask whether it's the will of God for us to do every action in life?

Wasn't it once said to leave heavenly things to God. Didn't someone ask Jesus about money and he showed that it was Ceasar on the coin and said something to the effect of concerning God with the divine things and leave the earthly things to man? So I guess the point I'm trying to make is to let God's will be the things for God...probably you can decide to take a shower without asking God.
