God’s promise to always provide for you in the place of there, may not always mean that you will receive the benefit but may be so that others will respond put your selfishness aside, your resentment, your jealousies etc,
Interesting that we always consider our obstacles as events that prevent us from achieving our goals, if we only could look at them from the light of what God wants them to do, how different our life would be.
God promises to provide for us, wherever we are. In sickness, even until death, He has a plan for us that is meant for good and not for evil. There is not a situation available to us that, when looked at through God’s eyes, won’t provide a road of wealth, health and benefit. But that outlook won’t happen without our first, ridding our life of the me first perspective.
The purpose of God’s intent may not always be understood or the light at the end of the darkness obvious. But it always is there. God is the architect of all creation. That hasn’t stopped, creation is not finite, it is infinite. Creation is the evolution of every step we take. It is new in every breath we draw in.
Money, addictions, failed relationships, broken hearts all have a message and lesson for someone or something in life. Who among us would not accept and live within our situation with joy knowing that God’s purpose and intent was being served? This is what we need to sustain us, the vision not as we see it but as God intends it.
When God things the provisions of where we are has dried up, God will take us to a new place. If you think that you are at the bottom of your well for forgiveness, for tolerance, for love or for understanding, God will take you to a new place to provide the strength to take another step.
When we are at these crossroads in our life, when all our options seem to have gone away, One place has just begun to open up its avenues of probabilities. I want to stress that His avenue does not include possibilities of solutions it provides nothing but solutions. Everything that we find, that we are exposed to, once we have turned to God will be a solution to where we are. God’s insight and understanding of what we need is unparalleled. Please note the difference between what we think we want as opposed to what God knows we need. These two can be vastly different. God will provide a way out of our troubles.
There is a lyric in a Waiting song that says we are tired and scared and in unbelief but You (God) have yet to break a sweat….. Here the faithful are stumbling in their faith, crumbling beneath the wait of life. The wait, for believers to turn to God, so that He can remove the weight of our frustrations, oppressions, and depressions. Consider for a second, all the predicaments you have seen in your life, and all the successes you have enjoyed. Consider God’s role in that, multiplied by everyone in life and consider that God has not even begun to break a sweat of effort to achieve those results. It is phenomenal to consider the awesome power of God.
God is faithful to meet us in our deepest chasm, our darkest turn, and our lowest point of hopelessness, to provide solutions and opportunities that far outweigh anything even our imaginations can conceive. Seek the Word of God in and for your life and nothing will be far from your reach.
