If you were just, you wouldn't speak to others the way you do! All as you do is revile and nothing godly comes out of your mouth!

Well if you don't realise what God's will is, then there's something really wrong!

Really? What is his will for you in five minutes?

Those wicked acts dont make you wicked. You were wicked before you did them. A just person cannot perform a wicked act.
You were born wicked, you are wicked and so you produce wickedness.

Put it this way, I certainly know that God's will is for me to turn from sin and obey him. And I know that he is guiding and teaching me daily within my heart. And if I love him, I will do what he teaches and guides me to do, either through his written word, through his word in others and by his word in my heart.
I have a strong conscience and I know exactly what God requires of me every single day, because he's always helping to turn from doing wrong, and guiding me to do what is right. And I have a choice, either do his will, or not!
To the evil, nothing is good.

No we are not born wicked, babies are innocent! We are born into wicked flesh and wickedness grows as we grow. That's why Jesus says that we are to become little children to enter the kingdom of heaven. If little children are wicked then Jesus would never have said this!

Those born of God, do the will of God and not the works of the flesh!
No comment.

Wickedness can only manifest itself if we let it in and grow. If we deny sin before it takes hold, then it can't grow and get worse. And those born of God are strengthened by Christ, through the Holy Spirit.

Gods will is for you to trust him in all things . What you just listed there puts the responsibility and glory on you

And they do the will of God without conscious effort.

Wickedness will manifest regardless of what we do if we are wicked. It's also impossible to manifest in the just.

No CS to do the will of God is to glorify him, because once we deny ourselves and do God's will, then the life of Christ can be seen in and through us and we glorify God.
And I do trust in him in all things, and I know that we are be doers of the word and not hearers only. Anyone not living by the word of God is a false witness!

Nope, not always, we also have to go against our own will to do Gods will!

Every single one of us who are in this sinful flesh, sin! Although we should be turning from wilful sinning once we are born of God.

You are not glorifying God when you go about deciphering his will in your own flesh and doing whatever it is your flesh imagines is his will.

Our will and Gods will are exactly the same when we trust he is working in us for his pleasure.

If we are born of God, we won't be imagining anything, we will know what his will is and live by it daily.
