"I have come that they may have life and have it to the full "

(John 10:10, NIV).

"My food," said Jesus, "is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work." (John 4:34 NIV)

This list could be done in many ways.  But, maybe this will give you pause to think about living in the Will of God.

Light blue text indicate links to the Bible. the NIV is referenced, but you can change the version when you click the link.

1. To "Seek First the Kingdom of God..."  Matthew 6:33
   This takes selfishness out of the our effort in living our lives.  In this seeking of the Kingdom, God is telling us that He wants a relationship with us.
      
2. To Love God and be in Obedience to Him   
    Matthew 22:41-46
      
3. To Love Others as we would love ourselves
         Matthew 22:41-46
      
4. To Accept God's Love, Grace, To accept Jesus as our Savior, To Accept the Holy Spirit into our Lives as our Guide and Comforter, and
   all the other things he does for us.
      
5. To "Repent, ..."-  Matthew 4:17,
   Since Jesus said it, it must is good for us,
   After all, it is the first command of Jesus.
      
6. " Pray without ceasing, and
            Give thanks in all circumstances,"
    and To pray and pray and pray ----- everyday for the infilling of the Holy Spirit to give us the strength we need.   2nd Thessalonians 5:17-18 

    Matthew 26:41 NIV

   
      
7. To live in life in the Perfect Example Jesus’s behavior
      
8. In Humility and submission to God,
        be merciful to others.  (Matthew 5:7)
              Meekness or Boldness, Both?
     
9. Do not worry. It is a killer and sinful.  (Matthew 6:25)
             "Worried Sick" is not an uncommon phrase in western society and medical research shows its truth.  There is great medical evidence linking worry to heart disease.  In Jesus' comments about worry, He also gave us the command to not worry.  Worry interferes with our ability to seek God in our lives and anything that greatly impedes our seeking the Kingdom is sinful.  We need to be concerned about issues in our life, but according to Jesus the worries of our lives is not constructive behavior that leads us to the Kingdom. 
   Matthew 6:25-34

10. Live in God's will praying often,  
    “Not my Will but Your will be done”.
          Luke 22:42 NRS   
    God in His love He freely give us
    will help us accomplish His will for us.
    ...

I am sure there are more than 10 elements, behaviors, or actions that we could find in God's will for us.  If you can achieve all these let me know and I will try to find 10 more for you.
