Focus: The Pains of doing the will of God

WORD FOR TODAY
Sometimes doing the right thing according to God's word can cause a man a lot of pain. However, the will of God is not meant to make you suffer but to shape your life into fulfilling your divine mandate in life!!!
************************************
Scriptural Reference
"Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God. (1Peter 4:1-2 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is the will of God for Christ to suffer and die on the cross to liberate human race from the grip of sin. It was not easy for Him but He sacrificially bore the pains to be the Lord of all. Therefore, every man is expected to live not for himself any longer but for the will of God.

Most times flesh tends to give us an orientation of the fact that everything that has to do with the will of God is associated with sufferings; this is not true. The will of God at every point in time presents to you the mind of God to bring in subjection our sinful desires.

The pains we have from submitting our will is actually the price for the fulfillment of our mandate. The likes Joseph, Daniel and David endured various challenging situations in a bid to be who God wanted them to be. Your own case will not be an exception; if you must be what God wants you to be you must submit yourself to every divine process meant to shape your life into the original plan of God for your life.
___________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Is your life in absolute conformity to God's plan and purpose?

Prayer Point:
Lord! I receive the grace to live according to your will; I will not lose out in destiny in Jesus name. Amen!

Main Emphasis
The pains of submitting to God's will is the gains of fulfilling your mandate!!!

Have a Promising Week Ahead!!!

Why should it be pains.
Can't it be enjoyment like adeboye and the rest.
Why sell pains to the massed while title is for adeboye.

The only way you can free yourself is to rebel against the bible god. That is the only way to free yourself. Do the opposite of everything the pastors, priests demand of you.
