The Will Of God vs The Will of Man
May 4, 2025 • Paul Dederick
This message explores the complex relationship between God's will and human free will, emphasizing the challenges in aligning with God's purpose. Using examples from the life story of Joseph and his dream to John Brown and his raid on Harper's Ferry, to the movie the Untouchables ... we find that there is great mystery (to us humans anyway) in how God's sovereign choice interacts with human decision-making. We are reminded to spend time in developing a personal relationship with God and to be cautious of relying on others to interpret God's will for our lives. As Psalm 32:8 reminds ... "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye."
