God's Mind

Poke around somebody’s mind and you will find out what makes them tick. You’ll find out what moves them and pleases them. You’ll find out what their will is. I guess that’s the cool thing about God. We don’t have to guess what He wants or expects of us as His children. Perhaps we may still have a problem choosing what to do in life; however, we can know how to Do Life Right. (This is shameless; I actually put in a hyper link to my own stuff). We might not know who to marry, but we know who is excluded in our choice. We might not where to live, but we can know God places people is certain places at certain times, just so they can desire Him (Acts 17). Anyway, I guess the point of this is that we might not know where to go or what to do, but we can know how to act as we go, wherever it may be. We can know what pleases God as to how we treat people, do business, spend money, and even deal with the government. We can know the mind of God, well, for everything. In fact, this present world is scheduled for destruction, but His word will never pass away. I’ll just leave you with a verse to chew on.

 Jesus has the power of God, by which he has given us everything we need to live and to serve God. We have these things because we know him. Jesus called us by his glory and goodness.

2 Peter 1:3 NCV

He has, “given us everything we need to live and serve God.” He is telling us how live by the book. One more thing, if you doubt that the bible gives you all these things, think about John 1. The “Word,” the “Logos.” became flesh and dwelt among us. God lived out His word in Christ. To emulate Jesus, we have to, need to know what to do in any situation. Knowing God’s word will get you there.
