Seven Ways to Know You’re in the Will of God (And How You Know When You’re Not)

Let me tell you something up front: The will of God is not a mystery! Religion paints this picture like God is hiding His will from you, and you’ve got to stumble around in the dark hoping you trip into it. No! God’s will is clear, God’s will is knowable, and God’s will brings you into blessing and kingdom advancement.

If you’re not in the will of God, you’re wasting time, spinning your wheels, and giving the devil a foothold in your life. But when you’re in His will, you don’t just survive—you multiply, you advance, and you shake the nations for Christ.

1. Peace in Your Spirit

Scripture: “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.” — Colossians 3:15 (NKJV)

2. Confirmation by the Word of God

Scripture: “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Psalm 119:105 (NKJV)

3. Fruitfulness and Multiplication

Scripture: “You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?” — Matthew 7:16 (NKJV)

4. Open Doors by God’s Hand

Scripture: “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.” — Revelation 3:8 (NKJV)

5. The Witness of the Holy Spirit

Scripture: “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.” — Romans 8:16 (NKJV)

6. Provision in the Assignment

Scripture: “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 4:19 (NKJV)

7. Advancing the Kingdom of God

Scripture: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” — Matthew 6:33 (NKJV)

How You Know You’re NOT in the Will of God

Let me hit this quickly and clearly. The Bible shows us markers of being outside His will:
1. Confusion and unrest. “For God is not the author of confusion but of peace.” — 1 Corinthians 14:33 (NKJV)
2. Compromise against Scripture. “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you… let him be accursed.” — Galatians 1:8 (NKJV)
3. Lack of fruit. “If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered.” — John 15:6 (NKJV)
4. Constant striving with no breakthrough. “To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.” — Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NKJV)
5. Ignoring conviction. “And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.” — Ephesians 4:30 (NKJV)
6. Living in lack. “You have sown much, and bring in little… he who earns wages, earns wages to put into a bag with holes.” — Haggai 1:6 (NKJV)
7. Self-glory instead of God’s glory. “I am the Lord, that is My name; and My glory I will not give to another.” — Isaiah 42:8 (NKJV)

Conclusion

Friend, the will of God is not something you have to stumble into—it’s something you step into by faith and obedience. When you’re in His will, peace rules your heart, doors open, fruit multiplies, provision flows, and the Kingdom advances. When you’re out of it, confusion reigns, doors slam shut, provision dries up, and your life feels like pushing a boulder uphill.

Make up your mind tonight: I will live in the center of God’s will. I will not be distracted. I will not compromise. I will not settle.

Because when you’re in His will—you’re unstoppable.
