10 Questions for Knowing God’s Will

Last week at IWU chapel, Dr. Jim “Umfundisi” Lo spoke about knowing God’s Will. At the end of this talk he gave 10 questions for helping to discern God’s will in your life. Here are the questions he gave.

1.    Will it honour God?
2.    Is it consistent with Scripture?
3.    Is it the “best” thing that could be done? Is there something “better” to do?
4.    Is it my heart’s desire? Is this something I really have a passion for?
5.    Does it fit who I am as a child of God? Does it fit my skills, gifts, resources, abilities, capabilities, limitations, etc.?
6.    Does it fit God’s overall plan for my life? Has everything He’s brought me through readied me for this opportunity, this purpose, this adventure?
7.    Are there, or has there been, any providential leadings toward this course of action?
8.    Am I willing to submit this decision to God’s will?
9.    Is there, or has there been, an inner conviction and compulsion to undertake this course of action? Has it been confirmed through another person? Through the Holy Spirit? Through His Word?
10.    Do I have lasting peace in my decision?
