What does the Bible say about knowing God's will?

Answered in 4 sources

The Bible teaches that if anyone is willing to do God's will, they will know the truth and doctrine from Him.

According to John 7:17, our Lord states that if anyone is willing to do His will, they shall know of the doctrine, whether it is of God or from men. This indicates that true knowledge of God's will is closely tied to the willingness to surrender one's own desires and bow to God's authority. When we ask, 'Lord, what would You have me to do?' with a genuine heart to obey, God promises to reveal His will to us. It's not a mere inquiry for knowledge but an active engagement in doing what He commands.
