God has a good plan and a purpose for our lives and it is possible to discern God's will (his guidance) through various ways: Commanding Scripture (Bible), Compelling Spirit (Holy Spirit), Counsel of the Saints (Church/Christian community), Common Sense (Reason), Circumstantial Signs (Providence of God).

The awareness of God's presence energizes us for our work. When was the last time you were energized by the presence of God? The awareness and promise of God's presence in our lives are essential to our relationship with Him.

What you can do on your own

1. Read your Bible every day to get to know Christ better.
2. Talk to God in prayer every day.
3. Be baptized.
4. Honour One Another.
5. Accept One Another.
6. Serve One Another.
7. Don't Condemn One Another.
8. Submit to One Another.

Each principle is centered on the Lord, bringing the glory to Him alone, and the fulfillment of each is essential to the healthy Christian life.

• Seek God, not sin.
• Fear God, not men.
• Love God, not the world.
• Believe God, not the deceiver.
• Obey God, not your appetites.
• Serve God, not self.
• Worship God, not comfort.

By centering our lives around God (worship), learning to love God's family (fellowship), cultivating spiritual maturity (discipleship), contributing something back (ministry), and telling others about God's love (evangelism), we will build the foundation for a successful and satisfying life.

We cannot hope to appease God by working our way into righteousness, nor sacrificing others for our own sin. Instead, Micah listed out the three principles of what God asks of His people: to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with Him.

Concentrating on five distinct areas of a balanced life, the author explains how focus, strength, success, wisdom, and responsibility can lead to a realization of inner ability.

Life Principle 3: God's Word is an immovable anchor in times of storm. Each of us can remember times when we wished we had a sure word from God - something we could cling to when doubts and fears arose. God knows when we need encouragement, guidance, and hope.
