The Will of God

For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my (Jesus) brother, and my sister, and mother.  
Mr. 3:35
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.  Rom. 12:2
And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.  2Cor 8:5
Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:  Gal. 1:4
Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;  Eph. 6:6
…that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.  Col. 4:12
For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:  1Th. 4:3
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.  1Th. 5:18
For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 
Heb. 10:36
For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:  1Pt. 2:15
That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. 
1Pt. 4:2
Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator. 1Pt. 4:19
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. 
1Jh. 2:17

The will of God is: sovereign as in Gal. 1:4 (God ordained and will happen) or
                              His will (command) for us.

It is our choice to live outside of His will, or within it, and if we live within His will, we will abide forever.
