In this foundational episode of Journey with Jesus, Dr. Charles Stanley delivers a clear, Scripture-saturated sermon on discovering and walking in God’s personal will for your life, drawn from his classic teachings such as “How to Know God’s Will” and “The Will of God.” With his calm, authoritative voice and decades of pastoral wisdom through In Touch Ministries, Dr. Stanley reminds us that God does not hide His will—He delights in revealing it to those who seek Him with a surrendered heart. He encourages listeners to pursue God’s will not as a mystery to solve but as a relationship to enjoy, trusting Jesus to guide every step through His Word, the Holy Spirit, and a life aligned with His character.

Knowing God’s will begins with surrender and obedience, and Dr. Stanley unpacks seven practical, time-tested principles: (1) be sure you are a child of God through faith in Christ, (2) obey what you already know from Scripture, (3) trust the Holy Spirit to lead you inwardly, (4) examine your desires in light of God’s Word, (5) seek godly counsel from mature believers, (6) watch for circumstances that align with God’s direction, and (7) wait patiently until you have clear peace from God. He uses biblical examples like Paul’s missionary journeys and Jesus’ own submission in Gethsemane to show that God’s will is always good, acceptable, and perfect—even when it leads through difficulty. This episode is a steady, comforting guide for anyone wrestling with big decisions, career direction, relationships, or simply longing to live fully in God’s purpose.
