God’s Transformation Enables Us to Discern His Will

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Romans 12:2

If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me a question like, “What is God’s will for my life?” Or, “How can I discover God’s will for my life?” I’d be a wealthy man.

Those are important questions. God wants you to know His will for your life. But He will only reveal it, and you will only receive it, when your heart is set to do it. God is under no obligation to show you His will when you look at it as just one on a menu of options for your life. Your mind needs to change. Your inner being needs to be transformed. And when He’s ready, and He knows you’re ready, He will give you insight. He will give you power. And He will give you the desire to do His will.

When God renews our minds, we are enabled to discern and appreciate His will, and determine to obey it. You will know that God is doing his work in you as God’s word, the Bible, begins to make sense to you, and truths will begin to leap off of its pages that you have never comprehended before. It will confront you and comfort you; challenge you and encourage you. God by His Spirit will use it to change you from the inside out, making you the person He wants you to be, and enabling you to do what He wants you to do.
