We know doing God’s will is essential for our future. God’s will involves following His laws. After all, King David said, “I delight to do Your will, O my God, and Your law is within my heart” (Psalms 40:8). David, though he was not perfect, spent his life pursuing an understanding and practice of God’s laws. We must do the same. Study the Ten Commandments and gauge how you are measuring up to the deep spiritual principles imbedded in each (Matthew 23:23). Only by pursuing God’s law can we “know His will, and approve the things that are excellent” (Romans 2:18).
