And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
Religion likes to paint a beautiful picture of the life of a believer. Unfortunately, this is not true. Believers face many calamities and heart breaking events.
Most believers will question the validity that all things work together for good. What about death, tragedy, divorce, addictions? You cannot rationalize good out of bad.
The better way to interpret this truth to a believer is "Where sin abounds, God abounds more." The world is full of evil and Satan desires to steal, kill and destroy. God is stating My love abounds more. I take the bitter events of life and bring inner healing and restoration. I turn the destruction of Satan into a blessing of God.
God is not to blame for the evil in the world. Jesus cited the eighteen people who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell on them. Jesus said do you think they were worse sinners than all the other men in Jerusalem? Jesus said no but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.
The morality of a man may not have anything to do with a tragic accident.
Bad things happen in the world. All we can do is pray the blood of Jesus over us, turn away from darkness and walk in the light of Jesus.
When bad things do happen, the love of God will heal and restore a believer. The disclaimer is that we love God and are called according to His purpose for our life.
We love God walking by faith believing in His promises and seeking His will for our life.
It is so important to submit your life to the authority of the Holy Spirit. The omniscient wisdom of God will protect you from Satan. Inquire of the Lord in making important decisions. He will never fail you!
