Learned about finding the will of God last night. First you clear the pathway. That is make sure there is no sin between you and God. For God will not bless our sinful lifestyle, and how can we expect a holy God to communicate with a sinful mind? Put all your desires aside so they do not get in the way of God speaking. Secondly exercise patience and wait for God's answer. Be alert to pressure. Don't allow people to push you into making decisions outside of God's will, and recognize your own internal pressure whether your afraid to be judged, or afraid you'll miss an opportunity because you don't make a snap decision. Persist in prayer for as long as it takes. Sometimes God needs to deal with our hearts before we make a decision, or He is preparing the blessing for the right time. Rest in God's promise. Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and the door shall be opened unto you. Lastly wait for his peace. For the peace of God will come over you when your making a decision within God's will. If in your mind your still uncertain then continue to wait until God has prepared the way before you .

Read psalm 25: 1-5 about waiting on the Lord.
Psalms 27:14 Wait on the Lord. Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart. Wait I say on the Lord!
