How do I find God's will for my life as a believer?
Begin by becoming a child of God through salvation, because God does not work with the unbelieving world. After the renewing of the mind creates a new man, search the Scriptures in prayer and fellowship with other believers. God will show you His good, acceptable, and perfect will, often through opened and closed doors rather than dramatic signs.
Les explains that many people have asked him over 25 years how to find God's will for their lives. He says it is a good question, but you must start by becoming a child of God, because God does not fool with the unbelieving world; He waits for them to respond to salvation but is not in control of their lifestyle. Morality cannot be legislated for the unsaved. Instead, God's act transforms believers into a new creation. Then, Les says, all we have to do is search the Scriptures while in an attitude of prayer and fellowship with other believers, and God will show you His will. He did not claim a great light from heaven or flashing lights; he describes circumstances, doors open and doors closed, and says it is that way with every believer. This leads to the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God.
