Romans 8:28-30 KJV — And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. [29] For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. [30] Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
One day you will look back and realize that some of the things that happened to you, were actually happening for you. All things will work together to your good. All things work together, the things in your life are teaming together to help you.
How worst can things get, than to ride on a donkey on Sunday, hailed by all women and children in a city; go into the temple and overturn table; attend a party and a woman comes to celebrate you with a precious bottle of perfume; then just after that things turn around?
Think about it;
- The pastor in charge of finance decides to betray you. He actually plans it and executes it. He was even dining with you while he was executing his plans. Thinks about it.
- You are betrayed and arrested like a common criminal when you have done nothing. You are slandered and maligned; arrested and manhandled..
- Your trusted companions deny you and the people you have helped and prayed for come forward to testify against you.
How worst can things get more than this? But look at Jesus now! All the things that happened to him have turned out for His good. I want to prophesy to you, that one day you will look back and see that things indeed worked together for your good. I know it hurts! I know it is shameful but God will turn things around for you.
The word will help you and turn things around for your life like Joseph. You will rise! Those who vowed that you dream will never see the light of day; will be the ones who will announce your coronation.
Just do these things and see what God will do for you.
Proverbs 3:5-13 KJV — Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths. [7] Be not wise in thine own eyes: Fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
[8] It shall be health to thy navel, And marrow to thy bones. [9] Honour the LORD with thy substance, And with the firstfruits of all thine increase: [10] So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, And thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
[11] My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; Neither be weary of his correction: [12] For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; Even as a father the son in whom he delighteth. [13] Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, And the man that getteth understanding.
- Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not on your own understanding
- In all your ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your path
- Be not wise in your own eyes, fear the Lord and depart from evil
- Honour the Lord with your substance and with the first fruit of your substance
- Despise not the chastising of the Lord
- In all thy getting, get wisdom. Wisdom is the principal thing
May the Lord help and bless you as you trust in Him with all your heart!
