At Carrollton Christian Fellowship we noticed that the desires of the Lord are much more influencable in our lives when the Holy Spirit has something for Him to Work with in our life. The Lord has said that it's by His Spirit, by His character which He does everything. So the best way to know what the Lord is doing through any of our circumstances and situations is that we must understand His character and how He works, and the Lord has said the only way we can know that is we MUST be in His Word and meditating on His Word which He uses to sanctify our lives.
