Whenever we face a major decision in life, it’s important to discern God’s will on the matter. What is God’s will for where I live? Who I marry? What career path I take? The questions are endless. And God has a perfect will for your life. But even if you don’t hit the “bullseye” and discern His “perfect” will, there is still grace for God’s children. He will redirect your path to move you in step with His will as you humbly seek Him. In today’s study, Pastor Gary shares 5 principles for discerning God’s will.

I just listened to this, as I'm driving the moving van 1800 miles across 8 states to take a job in city, in a state I've never been to and where I know nobody, taking about 1/2 the pay. I sold my home of 17 years and said goodbye to the kids.
Why?
Because I decided to trust the lord instead of myself. I stopped trying to look for what I thought would be the right job and instead I asked where should I go?
Once he pointed out where I was supposed to go, then I started looking around for a job, and there was only one good one.
I got it, and after over 9 months of wondering what's wrong in my life, I'm off on a new adventure.
I have to trust that He knows best and it is all for the right reason.
My job is to obey, and to follow through. 👃 I'm not perfect, but I'm not going to stop moving in the right direction.
Way to go! God be with you! Great job taking a leap of faith
You left your children? How old are they?
Left your children. They must have been adults when you left.
the faith of Abraham comes to mind upon reading your share. May our Heavenly Father prosper the Word of His power to you as you set your face to hear and follow His instructions to you so you may walk closer still to HIM. go you, beloved!
We will never learn the will of God for big things, until we have learned to hear from God on the very little things.
Gary Hamrick, so far between Cornerstone pastor David, and Calvary , the spiritual growth in my life has grown exponentially, thankyou Jesus, for you all. I am at a loss of words , I bring to you all this growth in prayer 🙏, from LaredoTEXAS border with Mexico, greetings

😢😢😢😢😢😢....im always blessed when i listened to Gods word... You are God's Mouth Piece....thank you so much Pastor For sharing this word....Greatings from Philippines!!!!!
Thank you pastor Hamerick finally I understand why I had to stay in my job as a nurse , I always wanted to do something else and I have had really difficult times during my many years as a nurse
Now I understand it was Gods will🙏
I should have prayed before marrying my husband . He's a non believer but he does not oppose me praying and listening my Christian music.
So what are you saying
Your husband is good man
Win him to Lord by being Christ Centered Wife
I know how you feel. Sometimes this crosses my mind but then I remind myself that nothing is impossible to God. If we believe in Him and what the word says than all we have to do is trust, obey Him and pray for them. Then leave it in Gods hands.
Thanks for your effort and preparation. You consistently give messages that help me in the journey of life.
Thanks for your prayers, the result of the Indian Election was victory over "Truth"
Thank you Lord for Gary. This was so WOW for me. God bless & keep you well & safe, thank you Gary. ZA
Thank you for this. The timing is amazing. I'm job hunting and ask God tonight just get me where you want me to work. And I was freaking out that I would get it wrong.
Thank you for this peace.

He who began a good work in you will perform it!
Amen and Amen to that
Pastor GARY I'm. been following you GOD BLESS
So good!
Thank you pastor Gary for your wonderful sermon. Actually I was seeking your sermon about God's will in our life.
Those who do and stay in God's will are secured and satisfied. Those who don't and follow their worldly ideologies never are then goes to complain and blame the system. Marriage and the job one is spot on. Nowadays it's "I want easy and big money/promotion in a workplace with no problems and a marriage that I don't wanna work on when things get tough."
To understand God’s will, it has to start with the renew of the believer’s mind base on this passage. In other passage, God’s will is to pray without seize, rejoice always, and give thanks in all circumstances. God’s will is found in the Bible. It is not about who we should marry or where we should work or move but it is for believers to have an upward focus on what is in God’s heart.
Yes, God’s will is laid out clearly The Bible. He is more interested in the condition of ours hearts than the comforts of our lifestyles. We should ask God to help us make wise decisions based on what we know of His revealed will in the scriptures. He gives us the responsibility to make decisions that please Him.
Great message
Powerful and what God said. Separation is different from divorce. We have to obey what God 's Word says and believe he means it for are best when it comes to remarriage that is permitted in his eyes. No never stay in an abusive relationship. Widowhood is hard too, but God is with me. Prayers for those having to make big job decisions. God bless you for preaching The Word and leaving it with us to choose to obey or live in sin.
Watching from the Philippines
How does separation solve a needed resolution? How does separation adhere to God's Word? Have you ever dealt with anything in your life by avoiding the fix?
Amen
Your spouse is not Jesus and they can't make you happy. You just have to get up every day and do what's right as much as possible.
Thank you Pastor Gary
God’s WILL for my life - past, present, and future - was, is, and will be perfect. The God I worship does not make mistakes.
Thanks be to God for your preaching God's word , pas Hamrick. HW
This is so good..a perfect illustration..God you my brother
Lol lol…listening from Cleveland Ohio
Listening again this Monday! Tried 4 times yest. Was taking notes. I have a question! I believe God has given me a job. Being a prayer warrior. That is something I am able to do. In keeping with praying the will of God. Which I do! But how do I know how to pray, for His will. Praying for healing, for all kinds, but how do I know what to pray. I want His will and I want my will. Or others will! How are we to pray. I ask Jesus to correct my prayers, to the Father.
Thank you for this sermon. Had a problem hearing the entire sermon yest. So listen again today.
I missed the target, once. And let me tell you, it is not as easy as you say, "You can move back." I couldn't, and it felt as punishment.
I watch it twice or three or four or five

My Daughter just got divorced and it was the best decision she maid. If she didn’t she would’ve stayed in misery. I believe God is our father. He loves us. And wants best for us. Some covenants were broken in the Bible by chosen people. The Ten Commandments is a covenant we all break them it’s life. What God is judging is our hearts and motives. I’m thankful that my daughter didn’t have kids with him. God loves Us no matter what. I believe God will turn this for good! Thank you for your sermon they’re always good! God bless!
Got news for you Pastor Gary: CLEVELAND ROCKS !!!…😊
❤❤❤
Hallo Ps. Gary, we in South Africa are wondering when are we going on with 1 Kings 7/8.Are we ever going to hear the rest of these teachings.
South Africa
I was trying to listen to this talk, but the video doesn't seem to work well. After playing for a few minutes, it's keep going back to the start.
I wonder what name Moses’ parents gave him before the princess found him.
where is PART 2? pls help
What is the protected content from A&E that keeps getting blocked on the other video?
To understand God's heart, we must marry and have children so we can experience all levels of God's heart and love. The family is the ONLY place were we experience the greatest happiness and deepest love. Single people can never understand God's love without having their own family. That is why homosexual goes against God's will.
This has nothing to do with God's will. Everybody thinks if I like it and it was a good decision it was God's will, if not I messed up and am outside His will. Sin puts you outside His will, so work on that. His will for us is described in 1 Thes 4.3, our sanctification, by which you inherit the kingdom per Acts 20.32/26.18. Being counted as worthy to enter the kingdom/Millennium is His will. Romans 12.1/2 tells us how, by the renewing of our mind/soul salvation in order to prove/realize/vindicate His investment in us at the JSOC.
I suggest you read "The Four Wills of God." Then, follow God's will in the Bible and make decisions.
So somebody has to stay in an abusive marriage?
NO! That is one exception! 😢 look in the comments here, there's their phone number...call them and ask to speak to a Pastor, it might not be Pastor Gary but all their Pastor's are great! Look for a place that will take you in to live for abused women. Please DO NOT go back to that person after you leave, that's the time that will be the most dangerous time. Praying 🙏 for you 🙏
Also that person will beg you to go back to them! They will tell you that they love you...but if take was the case, they would have never abused you to begin with. They will tell you that they will change but that rarely happens!
It says if the person is not a believer and abandons you… abusers aren’t really walking in the faith- not sure they are really true followers of Jesus if they are abusing
- abuse also seems like unfaithfulness as he mentions the word making that exception as well. How to clearly define those instances is not spelled out in the Word but seems like there’s exceptions that would be under the umbrella of abuse that would be my human assumption based on who I believe and understand God to be.
I’d recommend anyone pondering that for personal reasons to seek good Christian council and support and not assume that that was what Gary or the Word says here as that’s not what I understand it to be
Absolutely not! My 11yo daughter and I prayed
consistently for about a year that God make a way for us to leave if it is his will. He made the way so clearly it was like a travel itinerary! We moved from the E coast to the W coast, while he was at work.
NEVER let on your leaving. Leaving is the most dangerous time.Just go along as usual then go quick. NEVER go anywhere he can find 34:25 you. NEVER tell people your going or where your going . Including small children, my son was 6. I didn't tell him until we're on our way to the airport, make it a fun time for them. Of course you tell a few close family and YOUR closest friends. My children and I were so abused we had to dissappear. He never found us.
I live in a small town, so our local Womens Chris center moves our local victims far from here to keep them safe. Then they take victims from out of state or far from here.
Get in touch with your local Womens Chrisis place.
Remember, don't threaten to leave or anything, just go.
One thing, be 💯 % sure your done and are not going back.
Our escape was the best decision I ever made for my kids and I 😊 🙏 Praying for your safety and for God to lead you according to his will . ✝️ 🙏
God doesn't want you hurt. It's Biblical to separate. If the abuser doesn't repent and utterly change, then the abuser has abandoned the marriage and clearly they're unbelievers. That how my pastor explained it and helped me.
Nope Abuse and sexual assault and coercion are also grounds for divorce, Moses already said abandoning, abuse and adultery
Expanding on “abandonment” when you abuse someone you abandoned them, you abandoned your covenant you abandon your relationship you abandon decency.
