1) God will give you a road map: God does not give roadmaps, He gives relationships. as you follow Him, He will reveal His will unto you.
Ex.13:21
2) God doesn't want you to have by fun : some see God as a cosmic killjoy.
That is, if you surrender to do His will, you have hard and unhappy life. Many are afraid to find His will because they are arid of what they might be asked to do. Put yourself in the place of God. how do you treat your children? Isn't He better than us? Luke 11:11-13
3) God only speaks to a certain, few holy people: Gods will is not limited to those with position. He has a will for everyone at every conceivable level of commitment. If you choose to follow in His will, you will be lead to a holier life. But, He calls us where we are!
4) Gods will is hidden from us and we have to find it ourselves: God never hides His will He reveals it He wants you to know His will so you can get about doing it.
Now a few steps that will lead us into knowing the will of God
Gods guidance is provisional
A). Be willing to obey Him: too often, we make our plans, set them in motion and then call God in to bless them. To genuinely do His will, we must put our will aside and be willingly to do all He ask. Can you say where he leads I will go?
B) display a spirit of meekness : Psalm 25:8 Saul displayed a teachable spirit. If you aren't teachable and think you know it all , then you will probably never know His will.
C) be open to God: earnestly, sincerely pray for Gods guidance . If God isn't showing you anything, perhaps examine your life to see just how much time your really spend with Him in private. Too often he is speaking, but no one is listening.
D) Be yielded to God: Acts 9-8-9 as soon as he has a word from God, he got busy doing it. Again God doesn't reveal His will to someone who isn't going to do it anyway. If all areas of your life are yielded and open to His will, then you can expect that He will reveal Himself to you. Are you willing to do His will regardless of the cost? Ike 14:26-33
