The Will of God Part 1: Called to His Will

What if the greatest obstacle to experiencing God's blessing in our lives is not the enemy, not our circumstances, but our own neglect of what God has already clearly asked of us? This message cuts straight to the heart of a question we rarely ask honestly: are we actually doing the will of God, or are we simply asking God to bless our own will? Drawing from Matthew 7:21, where Jesus makes clear that entering the kingdom requires doing the Father's will, not just calling on His name, we are challenged to examine whether our spiritual lives are being shaped by genuine obedience or comfortable routine. Like a body that suffers the consequences of years of neglect, our spirits too reflect the accumulation of small daily choices. When we stop seeking God, stop reading His word, stop praying, we do not fall apart overnight, but we quietly open the door to bondage we later cannot explain. The message reminds us that sin is not only the bad things we do, it is also the good things we stop doing, like pursuing the presence of God. This is an invitation to stop blaming outside forces for what our own drift has allowed, and to return to the One whose power raised the dead and lives within us.
