Without rightly dividing the word of truth, you may not fully understand God's will for you today. Many believers today think that God's will has to do with their specific career, or finding a soul mate and other worldly issues or they might think that God's will for us is to live according to Old Testament levitical laws or to live according to man-made religious traditions and teachings.
God's will for us today is that 1) all men be saved and 2) to come unto the knowledge of the truth and to 3) Be thankful in all things.
1 Tim 2:4 "Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth."
You cannot serve God without being saved first, and after salvation we are to be fully established and edified in sound grace doctrine. We become established and edified by studying God's word rightly divided beginning in the book of Romans which is foundational doctrine for the believer today. God's will also includes us being thankful for all He has done for us, for who He is, for who He's made us to be in Christ, for what God is doing today in us as we mature spiritually through the word and what He's doing in forming the church the Body of Christ to inherit the heavenly places etc.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 - "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
Romans 12:2 - "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."
God's will for us also, as believers, are to be ambassadors for Christ with the ministry of reconciliation. We cannot be good ambassadors if we have not yet "come unto the knowledge of the truth".
2 Cor 5:20 "Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God."
2 Cor 5:18-19 "And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation."
This work of the ministry is for men and women by the way! We are also to keep a specific order in the local church assembly, but men and women both are to preach the gospel to the lost (though men specifically are to be the pastors of the local assembly) and teach whatever sound grace doctrine that they understand to others who may be weaker in the faith and who are willing to listen.
We are to preach the gospel of the grace of God, not any other gospel (like the gospel of the kingdom etc). The kingdom gospel pertained to Israel's program, which has temporarily been put on hold.
Gal 2:7-9 "But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter; (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:) And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
Acts 20:24 "But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God."
Romans 16:25
“Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,”
Many believers today preach the kingdom gospel instead of the gospel of the grace of God. There are many gospel perverters who add some kind of works requirement to the gospel such as water baptism, joining a church, sin confession, praying a special prayer, praying a rosary, etc.
We are to preach a clear gospel message, how that we are saved today by grace through simple faith in Christ's death, burial and resurrection as atonement for our sins. We are not required to be water baptized; we are not a priestly nation; we do not have to keep sabbath or holy days; etc all of which pertains to Israel's prophetic program. We are also not waiting to enter into the earthly prophetic kingdom. Believers today have a heavenly inheritance. We will inhabit the heavenly places! Beleiving Israel, after their prophetic program resumes and when the Lord returns after the 7 year tribulation on the earth, will inherit the earth and they will literally rule and reign with Christ on the earth. This was promised to them and God will fulfill his promises to them as well as to us. I will explain both programs more in future Bible studies.
It is in reading and studying the Pauline epistles that you will come to understand more about God's will for us specifically today in the dispensation of grace.
Ephesians 5:17 - Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
