Confirming and Aligning with God's Will

Peter didn’t act impulsively; he confirmed God’s will through prayer, vision, and the Spirit’s guidance. Acts 11:12 says, “The Spirit told me to go with them without misgivings.” He not only heard God but also compared what he heard with the experiences of others, like Cornelius.
 
God’s will is never revealed in confusion or contradiction. He confirms His direction through Scripture, the Holy Spirit, godly counsel, and circumstances. When we seek confirmation before acting, we protect ourselves from spiritual error and align our lives with what God is doing.
 
Aligning with God means more than agreement—it means action. Once Peter understood what God was doing, he adjusted his perspective and joined in. Doing things God’s way requires not only discernment but also obedience.
 
Scripture:
Psalms 119:105 - Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

Application:
Spend time today asking God to confirm His will in an area of uncertainty. Seek counsel from a trusted believer who can help you discern God’s voice.
 
Prayer:
Father, thank You for being faithful to speak and confirm Your will. Help me to listen carefully and align my actions with Your plans. I want to move in harmony with what You are doing in the world. Amen.
