HOW CAN I KNOW WHAT GOD WANTS ME TO DO
The Bible clearly tells us:
Worship God, not idols Ex. 20.3,4.
Honor your parents Eph. 6:1-3.
Do not murder Ex. 20:13.
Do not commit adultery Heb. 13:4.
Do not lie Ex. 20;16 Eph. 4:15,25.
Do not covet Ex. 20:17: Rom. 7:7,8.
Do not lust Mt. 5:27,28.
Forgive others Mk. 11:25: Eph. 4:32.
Love God and your neighbor Mk. 12:28-31.
Be holy 1 Pet. 1:16.
Do not marry an unbeliever 1 Cor. 7:39: 2 Cor. 6:14,15.
Help a brother in need 1 Jn. 3:16-19.
Don't take a Christian to court 1 Cor. 6:1-8.
Do not steal Eph. 4:28.
Be reconciled quickly to the person with whom you have a dispute
Mt. 5:23,24.
Tell the truth Prov. 12:22.
The list could go on and on, but the point is this: The Bible is full of God's clear commands that offer us direction for most of life's decisions. The more we know of God's written Word, the more quickly we will know what God wants us to do.
