Many of us who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ find ourselves asking the following question, what is the will of God for my life? And most people who ask this question are usually waiting for some mystical revelation from God. I’m not saying that God cannot reveal specific things to us via His word, or another medium. But when we think of God in those terms, we are in for a very frustrating life. Fortunately for us the Bible has provided us with practical guidelines to know what God desires for us. Paul in the book of Romans explained the wrath of God, the nature of the adamic man, our inability to live up to God’s standards, our hopeless condition as children of wrath, then introduces salvation by grace through faith in Christ, condemns salvation by works, all this from Romans 1-11. And He opens Romans 12 with the following verses” I appeal to you therefore, brothers,[a] by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.[b] 2 Do not be conformed to this world,[c] but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect”
We are going to exploring these verses today as they give us the blueprint for discovering the will of God for our lives. See video

My name is Tayib Salami and I started Tayibs.com for the sole purpose of exploring difficult questions about the Christian faith that most of us shy away from. In 2017, I entered a very dark time in my life and it’s only by the grace of the Living God that I’m still alive today. It led me to really go deeper in my faith and consider a myriad of questions that I never thought about asking myself or others before. Welcome and enjoy the ride with me.
