Seated above, enthroned in the Father's love
Destined to die, poured out for all mankind
God's only son perfect and spotless one
He never sinned, but suffered as if he did
All authority, every victo-ry is Yours
All authority, every victory is Yours
Savior, worthy of honor and glory, worthy of all our praise, You overcame
Jesus, awesome in power forever, awesome and great is Your name, You overcame
Power in hand speaking the Father's plan
You're sending us out, light in this broken land
We will overcome by the blood of the Lamb
And the word of our testimony, everyone overcome
WE SHOULD TOTALLY SING THAT SONG AT FH09(:

That's a real interesting question Shalom. I just heard a seminar about God's will at the retreat.
Basically, if its things that are clearly commanded in the Bible, you don't really have to question yourself. Just do it. Things like this:
God's will for us is to:
- evangelize (matt 28)
- be joyful (2 Thess 5)
- pray continually (2 Thess 5)
- serve the Lord
- keep from sexual immorality
These things are God's will, period. So the question is not 'should i do this or not?' but 'HOW should i do this.'
when it comes to everything else, they key is to be familiar with God's word. "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. THEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TEST AND APPROVE WHAT GOD'S WILL IS, HIS GOOD PLEASING, AND PERFECT WILL." (rom 12)
Basically after that point, God gives you the FREEDOM to do what you think will be best.
important things to consider while doing this is:
- why am i choosing this decision? is it to raise me up? or to serve others and serve God?
- is my decision fully backed by the word of God? (make sure that by doing so you don't break any things that are obviously GOd's will.
Here's a good illustration.
God created Eden right? What did He tell adam and eve? eat from any fruit except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. right?
now think of Adam in the garden. He has an orange tree in front of him, a blue tree to his left, and a purple tree to his right. which one should he choose?
kinda funny right? the obvious answer is, 'it doesn't matter as long as its not breaking His will.' THat is a wonderful thing from God, that He gives us the freedom to make choices for ourselves.
if what you need to do is something God commands you to do, but you feel like you're doing it for yourself, just do it. First, repent for making it about you, turn around and MAKE it about God, then just be obedient. otherwise, use your freedom to decide to best glorify God and bring maximum service to others :D
hope that helped, i kinda ranted...
and did you know 'overcomer' is the theme for this year's FH? we sang that song at the rally and we will sing it at FH...
and you are so weird...
