IT'S INTENTIONAL

Text: Romans 8:28

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.

An American singer (Travis Greene)  once sang: _All things are working for my good, 'cause He's intentional....._  That is just the summary of our text today. God is intentional about your life. 

All that happens to God's children are always within the bracket of God's workings. If God is so detailed enough to number the hairs on your head, then He is concerned about every minute detail of your life. 

_But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Matthew 10:30_  You must settle it in your heart that Jehovah sees and knows all of your good and bad times. He is so concerned about you and all yours.

Whenever you are going through fire or any unpalatable situations, two questions you need to ask yourself is:

1. Do I love God?

2. Am I the called, according to His purpose?

Your ability to answer these questions in the affirmative: Yes, will go a long way in helping you know that all things are working for your good because He's intentional about you. Every detail of your life is in His palms.  That is the reason your fingerprint is unique to you in the whole universe. 

Your pains, delays, and waiting time are all working together for your good.

When Joseph was sold by his brothers, implicated by Potiphar's wife, and condemned to Prison by Potiphar, little did he know that all these ordeals were working together for His good because God was intentional about lifting him. 

You may know part of your story but not all, the conclusion of what God is working out for you may even extend beyond your lifetime.

See the case of Stephen. Little did he know that his martyrdom would lead to the salvation of the great Apostle, Paul. 

God is not in time, hence He's not in a hurry to conclude all storylines in one's lifetime, but He's always on time.

There are many saints looking down from heaven all to see how great and famous their names have become even after their demise. 

You must settle it in your heart that God is intentional about your life. Once you love Him and you are the called, according to His purpose, then ALL THINGS ARE WORKING TOGETHER FOR YOUR GOOD.


Bible Reading: Genesis 45:1-5.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
