In ministry, one gets used to being asked the same questions over and over. People all over the world have similar wanderings, dreams, fears and concerns when it comes to walking with God.

How to Fulfill God’s Will

The will of the Lord is a state of heart
One thing that is so necessary in order to survive in this walk with God is an adequate motivation. There are many good motives you could give for doing things for the Lord, but unless you have the right, perfect motivation, you break down in a time of test. If you worship for what you… Continue reading The will of the Lord is a state of heart
