What does the Bible say about seeking gods will?
Bible Topic · WEB
The Bible teaches that God calls His people to seek and gladly submit to His will, trusting that His wise purposes are good even when they are difficult to understand. Jesus tells us to seek first God’s kingdom and righteousness in Matthew 6:33, while Romans 12:1-2 urges believers to offer themselves to God and be renewed in mind so they may discern His will. Christ Himself modeled humble obedience in John 5:30 and Matthew 26:39. God works all things for the good of those who love Him according to Romans 8:28, and His Spirit helps and intercedes for His people in Romans 8:27. We seek Him sincerely through His Word, prayer, obedience, and trust.
