Will Power

 

No, the title is not about finding peace in the inner self.  It is not about mind over matter or the power of suggestion and positive thinking.  It is simply about the power God bestows to us from following  His will.  Do you sometimes wonder why you have earnestly desired certain things, positions, and possessions, even ministries, but still come short of your goal?  Why it is that you know you need significant help in areas of your life but the solution has not been found? As people of God we often turn to scriptures that oversimplify the process we must go enter for break-through.  Total breakthrough requires total submission to the will of God.  This submission opens our eyes to what is best for us–not just what we desire.  Once our spiritual eyes are opened to God’s will, He can then open doors that have for too long been shut.  (And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him. I John 5:14, 15)
