There is something called the will of God, which is usually divided into the perfect will and the permissive will. The best we should aim for is the perfect will of God.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Rom 12:2 (NKJV)

Children, let your mind be renewed. The best way to do this is by putting the law of God in your heart.

I delight to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart.”

Psalm 40:8 (ESV)

Children, to really enjoy God’s blessings and to align with God’s purpose for your lives, you must delight to do the will of God.

His will is not burdensome. He simply expects us to do as written in the word. Part of his will is to honor your parents.

Children, obey your parents in the Lord for this is right. “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment accompanied by a promise, namely, “that it may go well with you and that you will live a long time on the earth.”

Eph 6:1-3 (NET)

You must strive to always please Him in all ways. When you seek Him first, every other thing shall be added unto you.
