The will of God is a tricky one. Who's to say what God's will is? You? Isaiah 55:8 says:For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD
We are clearly given guidlines on righteous living, that can apply to any walk of life, or in any variation of ministry. You are going a long way to try and make the point the JW's are the only ones going door to door teaching the gospel, therefor they are the only ones doing God's will. That simply is just false, many other churches have similar out reach.
The really sad part is that you think that door to door evangelism is the only fruit that the gospel talks about, or that it is the only ministry that God honors. What of the work with the poor that so many churches do? Is that not spreading the gospel? I think it is.
God's will is like a river. If you are swimming across the river, it inevitably carries you farther down than you intended. If you try and tread water in the middle, it will carry you down stream. If you try and swim upstream, you will soon be exhausted, and carried down stream. If you stand in the shallows and soak your feet, eventually a flood will come and pull you down stream.
The point is, that as long as you are in the water, you are in God's will, and eventually God's true intention for your life wins out.
