The Will of God: Salvation, Purpose, and Winning Souls | S2 Ep38 (2025)
In Season 2, Episode 38 of the Closer to Jesus Podcast, I talk about one of the most asked questions in the Christian walk: What is the will of God? Scripture makes it clear—the heart of God is first and foremost that every person would be saved and spend eternity with Him.
Jesus said in John 6:40: “This is the will of Him that sent me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes on Him may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.” God’s will is salvation, repentance, healing, and destroying the works of the devil (1 John 3:8).
📖 Key Scriptures Mentioned:
John 6:40 – God’s will is salvation and eternal life through Christ.
2 Peter 3:9 – Not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
1 John 3:8–9 – The Son of God was manifested to destroy the works of the devil.
Matthew 18:11–14 – The lost sheep and God’s heart for the one.
Romans 10:17 – Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.
Jonah 2 – Repentance brings restoration and purpose.
✨ In this episode, we cover:
-Why salvation is the greatest will of God for every believer.
-How you are called to be a soul-winner in everyday life.
-The gifts God gives you for Kingdom work and why they’re not just for you.
-Why encouragement from Scripture carries eternal weight, unlike worldly encouragement.
-The urgency of being Kingdom-minded in the last hour.
God’s will isn’t a mystery—it’s salvation, healing, repentance, and purpose for your life. You’ve been called to win souls, to use your gifts, and to reflect the light of Christ in a dark world.
