The will of God

The good and perfect will of God (Rom. 12:2)

is to save those He chose before the foundation of the world through love (Eph. 1:4).

In accomplishing this purpose of salvation,

God works all things together for the good of those who love Him (Rom. 8:28).

In fulfilling this grand plan of salvation,

God desires to use us who believe in Jesus Christ.

Therefore, whether we live or die (14:8),

we should humbly obey in fulfilling God's will of salvation (Phil. 2:8).

We are not only to live lives worthy of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (1:27)

but also to open our mouths and testify to this Gospel (Acts 8:35).

We pray that God's will of salvation may be done on earth as it is in heaven (Mt. 6:10),

just as it has been accomplished in heaven.
