Praying According To The Will of GOD

This morning we will look at an important passage of Scripture. Luke 11 begins with one of our Lord's disciples asking Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples” (Luke 11:1).
We know God has a perfect will for us. And we know God wants to reveal His will to us. Ephesians 5:17 says, “Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.” The Bible teaches us that God reveals His will to us through His Holy Spirit, and we respond to the Holy Spirit by praying. When God answers our prayers, His will is accomplished.
Romans 8:27 says, the Holy Spirit “maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.” We may not know God's will but God certainly does, and it is through fervent praying that we find the perfect will of God.
And what is wonderful about all this is that God will incline our hearts to seek His will and to pray for His will to be done. We must pray, for by persistent prayer God is sought unto, and enquired after (Ezek. 36:36, 37).
