Deuteronomy 30:14
But the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may observe it.
Believers are always talking about "God's will" and finding it. We search for it as though it were some secret path, object, journey hidden in the bushes of life. We don't realize that God's will for our lives has been preserved for centuries. "God's will" has been a best seller in our society for decades. "God's will" is found right between Genesis 1 and Revelation 21. As the nation of Israel was about to depart into the promise land. To assure they would follow God in "His Will" God gave it to them. He simply told them. In the above verse we see that God's desire for us is not far away. It is right in our mouth and heart. Moses meant that the Words he just spoke them and had written down and placed along side the Mercy Seat, were now in their mouth and in their heart. They had "digested" the Word and that was what God wanted for them. We don't have to seek some hidden, unexpressed Word from God. If we spent our entire time on earth simply obeying His written and revealed Word, we would be exactly in God's Will. Don't spend your life looking for a secret when His revelation is right in front of you.
