My Will in Flames

“My Will” in Flames

Luke 22:42 Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done. NKJV

Gen 2:16-17 "You may freely eat the fruit of every tree in the garden — except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If you eat its fruit, you are sure to die."

Gen 3:6 She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. NLT

4 Keys Choosing God’s Will over Your Own

Help #1: Ask God to help you

Key #2: Be a student of God’s Word

I’m most likely to choose my will over God’s will when I’m confused about what He has said.

Key #3: Fill up your life with Godliness

Luke 11:24-26 "When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, 'I will return to the house I left.' 25 When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. 26 Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first." (NIV)

Key #4: Find your delight in the Lord.

Psalm 37:4 Delight yourself in the Lord and He’ll give you the desires of your heart.
