Ambassadress of GOD's WILL

 

2 Corinthians 5:20

King James Version

20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, 

as though God did beseech you by us: 

we pray you in Christ's stead, 

be ye reconciled to God.


Funny, funny SPIRIT.

You know that phrase, "ambassador of goodwill"?

Well, SPIRIT planted an idea in my mind this morning.

He used the words, "ambassadress of GOD's WILL".

And I realized that's what I had been doing all along.

Talking about GOD's will.

To anyone, or everyone, who would listen.

Reminding everyone to pray to know GOD's will.

Because that's man's sticking point -- GOD's will.

It's difficult for many to bend to GOD's will.

Many don't even know what GOD's will is.

But the born again knows.

Scripture told us.


The GOD's WILL idea was cemented completely, and forever, when SPIRIT and I wrote, "WHAT makes GOD answer a PRAYER?" nearly two years ago.

SPIRIT led me to this exact verse, which revealed EVERYTHING I needed to know:

1 John 5:14

King James Version

14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, 

that, if we ask any thing according to his will, 

he heareth us:


It's always about GOD's will.

Man can demand things, but if it's not GOD's will, he won't receive what he wants.

That's probably the hardest lesson man needs to know.

And that's when he gets all angry at GOD.

Or doubts He even exists.


GOD knows what He's doing.

Who are we to question His ways?

It's very sweet, and yet humbling, to know we need that.

And in this materialistic, Satanic, and demanding world, you have to be strong, sure, and steady, reminding everyone to know GOD's will.

Another set of verses actually complement that verse.

JESUS declared:

Matthew 6:7-8

King James Version

7 But when ye pray, 

use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: 

for they think that they shall be heard 

for their much speaking.

8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: 

for your Father knoweth 

what things ye have need of, 

before ye ask him.


GOD knows what we need.

He knows what we want.

We don't have to scream, holler, or shout.

We don't need to bug Him constantly.

GOD cannot be bullied.

Perish the thought, dears.

He knows what's good for us.

He predestined us for something.

And it's your job to find out what that is.

PRAY to know.


That's why, these days, when I pray for myself, or for others, I always just pray that "GOD's WILL be done".

I would have no idea what GOD's will is for you.

I cannot even begin to guess.

It's between you, and GOD alone.

It's a SACRED thing between you, and GOD.

No one must interfere with His plans for you.

Only GOD knows the circumstances of our life.

He knows EVERYTHING about you.

We must trust Him.

We must have faith.

We must believe in JESUS.

We must surrender our will completely to His.

We must listen to SPIRIT.


It's really pretty easy, once you belong to GOD.

You would not want to be without the LORD.

You will rely on His will, each and every moment.

You will delight in following His will.

And that pleases the LORD.

The world is the way it is today because man does not know GOD.

Or if he does, he doubts.

He questions GOD's will.

He doesn't have the grace to accept it.

Only by being born again, can we understand obedience.

And that pleases the LORD the most!

It's what JESUS taught us.

John 6:38

King James Version

38 For I came down from heaven, 

not to do mine own will, 

but the will of him that sent me.


So, that's my heart's song today.

Relishing the idea I am an "ambassadress of GOD's WILL".

Doing the work GOD predestined me to do.

Knowing I am on the right path.

Thank you, dear SPIRIT!

You sure know my heart!
