Knowing God’s will, according to Ellen G. White’s writings, is a process that involves several key steps: 1. Surrender and Earnestness: God reveals His will to those who are truly earnest and anxious to be guided. It’s important to make knowing and doing God’s will a priority, rather than following personal inclinations. The sincere question should be, “What wilt Thou have me to do?” (3T 466.4; 4T 53.3). 2. Submission and Prayer: When seeking God’s will, it’s essential to pray with a spirit of submission, saying, “Nevertheless not my will, but Thine, be done.” This attitude of humility and openness is vital (MH 230.1; GW 218.1). 3. The Word of God: God’s will is revealed in the Bible. Diligent study of Scripture is necessary, as it contains the essential knowledge for understanding God’s purposes (8T 63; CE 84.1). 4. Obedience and Light: As you obey the light you already have, God will reveal more. Christ promised that those willing to do God’s will would understand His teachings. Fulfilling known duties leads to greater understanding (SC 111.2; MH 465.2). 5. Consecration and Service: By choosing to serve God and surrendering your will to Him, He works in you to accomplish His good pleasure. This brings your whole being under Christ’s control (MH 176.2). In summary, knowing God’s will involves earnest seeking, surrender, prayerful submission, careful study of the Bible, and obedience to what you already know. As you walk in obedience and consecration, God will continue to reveal more of His will to you.
