R.C. Sproul

Well, what else?

I say, well, when the Bible speaks about the will of God for our lives, what is the chief concern that the Bible has for our living out the will of God?

Again, we want to know whether He wants us to live in this city or that city, take this job or that job, marry this person or that person, when it's enough to be busily engaged in the central concern that the Bible has for living out the will of God.

And if somebody says to me, R.C., what is the will of God for my life?

I said, let me just quote some Scripture to you.

This is the will of God, even your sanctification.

What I do know

about God's will for you is that God has called you to seek righteousness and to be obedient.

And as Jesus Himself said to people who were anxious about tomorrow and about the future, seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you.

And so if I leave you with any thought in this brief series on the will of God, it's

Or if you want to know the sovereign will of God, don't worry about it.

Put your investment in the preceptive will of God.

If you're studying what God has revealed, the unrevealed part will take care of itself.

It's in the best hands possible.

It's in the hands of God Himself.

So why worry about it?

I'm not going to change the secret counsel of God.

I'm not going to influence the secret counsel of God.

God in His own mind knows what that is, and what He calls me to do in my chief vocation is to be obedient to the precepts that He has revealed.

Okay.
