Episode 136: The Battle of the Wills - Finding peace in the world where there is no peace

The Battle of the Wills – finding peace in the world where there is no peace

Why does it seem that there is a battle going on to find peace. Peace is a scarce commodity in the world we are living in today.

"Our will" most commonly refers to the human faculty of choice, intention, or determination.

There is a battle happening in our mind when we are faced with trials and issues that need to be acted upon. The personal will is selfish, thinking only of self until it opens up to the will of God.

Jesus said, I am the way. His way is much better than our way, but we tend to think our way is better. We will prove to you that his way is the only way to live.

Gal 5

17 When your self-life craves the things that offend the Holy Spirit you hinder him from living free within you! And the Holy Spirit’s intense cravings hinder your self-life from dominating you! So then, the two incompatible and conflicting forces within you are your self-life of the flesh and the new creation life of the Spirit.

18 But when you yield to the life of the Spirit, you will no longer be living under the law but soaring above it!

It’s time to soar church! The higher we go, the less we have to deal with the emotions below.
Embracing God’s will is not a one-time event, but a continual practice of aligning our choices with divine purpose, cultivating resilience and hope even in challenging moments.
