Making Decisions: A Biblical Model
Overview
In his insightful book Decision Making and the Will of God, Dr. Gary Friesen outlines how the apostle Paul approached decision-making in his ministry. These strategies offer valuable guidance for anyone seeking God's direction in their own decisions.
Key Steps in Paul's Decision-Making Process
Dr. Friesen identifies the 5 Ps that encapsulate Paul's approach: Purpose, Priorities, Plans, Prayer, and Perseverance.
Purpose
Paul's decisions aligned with God's moral law and will. Whether your goal is to share the gospel, raise a family in a nurturing environment, or start a business, ensure your purpose is pleasing to God.
Priorities
Paul clearly understood his ministry goals and set his priorities accordingly. As God values grace and centeredness over stress, take time to prayerfully establish your priority goals and objectives.
Plans
Paul devised strategic plans to achieve his objectives. Think of your objective as the destination and your plan as the route to reach it.
Prayer
Paul continually sought God’s guidance through prayer. Pray over your purposes, priorities, plans, and timing to align them with God’s will.
Perseverance
When Paul faced obstacles, he perceived them as God's timing rather than incorrect plans. If you’ve prayed and consulted the Bible and fellow believers, consider that delays might indicate a different divine timetable. Keep praying and be open to new opportunities God may provide.
By applying these principles, you can make decisions that align with God’s will, following the thoughtful and faithful example of the apostle Paul.
