Title: Thy Will Be Done
Main Text: Matthew 6:10
Preacher: Pastor Paul Orimolusi
God doesn't want us to live a life of probability.
He wants His will to be done in our lives.
However, he gives us free will.
Today's Outline

- The will of Satan or the enemy
- The permissive will of God
- The perfect will of God
The Will of a man

- - Has no reference to God (Proverbs 3.5-6)
- - Filled with pride (Is 14.12-14)
The Will of Satan or the enemy

The Permissive Will of God (Number 22.7-12)
- - Half baked success
