Biblical Answer

God wants for you is the ultimate sacrifice, which is to sacrifice your life for His purposes. This is not just a one-time event, but a continuous process of surrendering your desires, thoughts, and actions to Him. It is a willingness to be identified with His death and to sacrifice your life for His glory. This means letting go of your own ambitions, goals, and desires, and instead seeking to do His will. It means being willing to go through trials and difficulties, not because you want to suffer, but because you trust that He is working everything out for your good. As Jesus said, "Whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it" (Luke 9:24).

The reason we often struggle to understand what God wants for us is because we are seeking our own desires and ambitions, rather than His will. We want to be blessed, happy, and fulfilled, but we are not willing to surrender our lives to Him. We want God to give us things, but we are not willing to give ourselves to Him. This is a fundamental misunderstanding of God's nature and purpose. God is not a blessing-machine, but a Father who wants to produce saints, people who are holy and set apart for His purposes. He wants to give us joy, but not the kind of joy that comes from seeking our own desires, but the kind of joy that comes from knowing and serving Him.

To understand what God wants for you, you must be willing to surrender your life to Him. This means asking Him to search you and know you, to reveal to you your heart and motivations, and to show you what He wants you to do. It means being willing to let go of your own desires and ambitions, and instead seeking to do His will. It means being willing to go through trials and difficulties, not because you want to suffer, but because you trust that He is working everything out for your good. As Jesus said, "Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts" (Psalm 139:23). This is the key to understanding what God wants for you, and it is a journey that requires surrender, trust, and obedience.
