God Will Make Everything Right (V)

God Makes Everything Right (V)

‘And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.’ Romans 8:28 [NKJV]

Bible Reading: Luke 8:43-48

For some days now we have been encouraging ourselves that God makes everything right. We examined stories of different people who experienced the raw power of Jesus to make situations right. God can make things right because He is the Almighty God – sovereign and glorious. Haven’t you heard that He rules in the affairs of men? (Psalm 103:19; Daniel 4:17). When God steps into a story, it changes for the best, no matter how worse or good the story may be, God’s sovereignty compels God’s exceeding power to manifest because where the word of a king is, there is power (Ecclesiastes 8:4). What do you need to do for God to start working in your situation?

First, faith is important in seeking God. Faith in Jesus Christ, who rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption,the forgiveness of sins (Colossians 1:13-14). You can’t please God without faith. Our journey in and with God is by faith in Jesus Christ (Hebrew 11:6). Faith in the person of Jesus Christ, faith in His word, faith in everything He is.

Secondly, prayer is key. It seems we are not praying enough. When we call upon God in the name of Jesus, we are inviting Him to intervene in that situation. When you pray, believe because faith is key to receiving from God (Hebrew 11:6; James 1:7). The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous avails much and we have become the righteousness of God (James 5:16; 2 Corinthians 5:21). I encourage you to go into God’s presence with boldness and not timidity (Hebrews 4:16). Also, go into His presence with clean hands and a pure heart (Psalm 24:3-4)

Finally, let His word guard your heart (Psalm 119:11). God’s word is true, and the Bible has hidden treasure for every situation. If we can only dig deep and find God’s amazing word for every season, our lives will never remain the same. Dear friends, you cannot build a cordial relationship with the Holy Spirit without these essentials. I encourage you to hold on no matter what you may be passing through and you will see God work in your life in Jesus’ name.

Daily Confession: Lord Jesus help me to hold on to your word and to believe you in all things in Jesus’ name.

Intercessory prayer: Prayer for God’s intervention for those who have turned away from God that God will bring them back to Himself and show forth His glory in their lives in Jesus’ name.

Hymn: Jesus is passing this way,

This way, today;

Jesus is passing this way,

Is passing this way today.
