There\u2019s no joy in life that compares to knowing you\u2019re in the centre of God\u2019s will. Not fame, not riches, not pleasure. Nothing compares to knowing you have the smile of His approval on what you\u2019re doing each day. <\/p>\n
Will doing God\u2019s will always be easy? No! It\u2019s enjoyable, but it\u2019s not always easy. Indeed, the size of your God-given assignment in life determines the level of attack against you. But your joy comes from knowing that God is strengthening you to do\u2014by the power of His Spirit\u2014what you could never do on your own. So in that sense, Satan\u2019s attack is confirmation that you\u2019re truly in God\u2019s will! <\/p>\n
Paul writes: \u2018I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers. I have\u2026 often gone without sleep\u2026 known hunger and thirst\u2026 I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I do not feel weak?\u2019<\/i> (2 Corinthians 11:23\u201329 NKJV) <\/p>\n
