What Does God Want Me to Do Next?ഉദാഹരണം

God’s Will Isn’t a Secret Map

You’re facing a big decision and want to do what God wants. That’s a good desire. But if you’ve ever felt stuck, afraid of choosing the wrong path or missing out on God’s best, you’re not alone.

Many people believe some version of this myth: God has a super-specific game plan for your life, and it’ll lead to blessings and happiness—but to access this God-ordained premium lifestyle, you need to make the exact right choices at the right time.

According to this thinking, God’s will is like a secret map, and unless you pray in the right way or live a holy enough life, you’ll never find it. That path leads to pressure, guilt, and fear.

But that’s not how God works.

God is not holding out on you. He’s not hiding clues or setting traps. He’s not waiting for you to figure out His will before He blesses your life. He’s already with you, ready to guide and shape you through every decision you face.

Think about Jesus in the garden before His arrest. He prayed, “Not my will, but Yours be done.” His prayer wasn’t about unlocking the future. It was about trusting God in the moment. That’s what God wants for you too.

The Bible rarely shows people receiving detailed, long-term life plans. What it does show is a God who cares deeply about who we are becoming. God’s will is less about the job you choose or the city you live in, and more about whether your choices help you live and love like Jesus.
