"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called to His purpose." Romans 8:28 NKJV. Even in hardship,suffering and in disappointments, even when wrongly treated, we can know that God will work in all of these situations(and more) to fulfill His plan and purpose for our lives! God can and does use all things in our lives for His good purpose. In Joseph's life while in the pit, Daniel in the lion's den and when Jesus was on the cross, God demonstrated His resurrection power in each of these hardships. He also does so in our lives as well! He is the One who brings forth beauty for ashes. No matter what impossible thing you are facing or hopeless and overwhelming situation that is confronting you...BELIEVE GOD'S PROMISE!!!
Exodus 34:6 And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, "The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering , and abounding in goodness and truth... In this verse IS the disposition of Messiah. The early church used this important verse to judge prophecy and conduct in the church atmosphere. There were three elders who were in charge of hearing and deciding if what was said and done in that time was in the disposition of Messiah. In this very shaky and explosive time we are living in (exciting & wonderful time I might add) it would serve us well if we would write this verse on the tablet of our heart and in every circumstance, situation we find ourselves apply it rightly and justly. By doing this, we, as the body of Christ, will start looking like the "church" the public has never seen!!!
