The quest for God's will

In trying to find God's will, many Christians think if the make one step in a direction. It is quite possible the "Big God' could slap them down. I think when we are driven by fear, we get into whole idea that we are settling.

 Settling is the worst thing to say about making a decision. So, in the quest for the will of God--we start looking for word of knowledge or the audible voice of the Lord.

 We can get into trouble looking for the voice of God. I think desire of an audible voice can put a believer on quest for craziness. An audible  voice could possibly make us wee our pants. Or you would say "I waddna ready fo dat."

The audible voice quest could be tied to hyper-spiritualilty craziness.  From looking to God's will we try to get Prophet Anna to tell us the next step in our lives. Then we start playing the scripture roulette instead of Russian roulette.

Would love to hear about your ideas about finding God's will for your life.  Please leave me comments!!!

God's will and hyper-spirituality

A great friend gave me a book about Knowing God's Will by M.Blaine Smith. This has been excellent book to read. In knowing God's will we (Christians)  have made to be some mystical place. God's will is for his children to follow and love him.  Sometimes Christians in the Charismatic bubble  can lean to heavily on the hyper-spiritual of looking for God's will.
A blogger called Evangelical Detox had an excellent description of people who are hyperspiritual.  A type of spirituality that seeks to find and pronounce the defense of one's theology in everything they see or attach a spiritual element to even the most minor of things.  According to Mr.Smith, people go so crazy in looking for his will for making sure the find the restaraunt by praying. I believe the hyper-spirituality can become an addiction.

I really don't believe God has given us a spirit of fear. In trusting and in knowing God's will he call us and stop us if we are not following his will.
