Today’s exhortation – The will of God
Would it be presumptuous of me to say that I know the will of God for your life in everything ? I’m sure it’s safe to say that many of us want to know the will of God for our lives in everything. Here it is, the bible says, Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. (1 Thessalonians 5:18). One would ask, should I be thankful for bad things too? The scripture says ALL things! However I believe we are not thankful for the bad things, but rather what God can do with bad things. We know that He will work ALL things together for our good so therefore we give thanks for all things.
The bible says, And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them. (Romans 8:28). What the enemy intends for our evil, God uses it for our good. Satan thought that by having Jesus crucified, he and his forces will have the victory, but the bible says, none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. (I Corinthians 2:8). It can only mean we are in a win, win situation. Praise The Lord. Have a blessed weekend. Amen
