“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.”

Want to Know God's Will?
The only way to know God’s will is by getting to know Him. It’s through drawing near to God that His guidance becomes evident. There isn’t one correct way to do that, but there are steps we can take that will help.
Seek God through prayer:
Think about a close friend. If you’ve known them for a while, you know what they like and dislike. The closer you are to someone, the more you understand them.

That’s why we need to get into the habit of talking to Him regularly, about everything.
