It is also important to understand God's will in our lives.
Matt 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Mattt 7:24-5 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. (KJV)
Studying God's word concerning his will and praying about it, is a great study. God will teach you what you need to understand so that you can truly pray "thy will be done"
