The walk of a follower of Christ can be challenging at times...the pull of the world makes a valiant attempt to draw us away from the right path.
Sometimes, the devices the enemy uses are subtle, other times it is clear what he is up to. Either way, he will do anything to keep you from doing the will of the Father, even to try to get us to question if we even can know God's will in a matter. Be diligent to defend yourself from this kind of attack! The Word of God is full of clear instructions for the believer. Your Heavenly Father wants you to succeed and provides a clear path, with plenty of directions and sent the Holy Spirit to teach and guide us. It only gets complicated when we allow our thoughts to be bombarded by the ways of the world and try to live with our feet trying to go in different directions, following the world and following God.
Doublemindedness is the source of unstable ways so guard yourself and do not allow yourself to think that you can't know the Will of the Father!
Here's a couple of the many reference we find in God's Word about His Word.
Today, purpose in your heart to do the Will of the Father, by doing good!
“Make the Master proud of you by being good citizens. Respect the authorities, whatever their level; they are God’s emissaries for keeping order. It is God’s will that by doing good, you might cure the ignorance of the fools who think you’re a danger to society. Exercise your freedom by serving God, not by breaking the rules. Treat everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere God. Respect the government.”

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
