You may face situations that you can never solve with your own strength. You may also find yourself in a state where no one can help you. You can feel as if you’ve been abandoned and neglected. Even in those kinds of situations, what does God want you to realize?

1. God’s Method
There are plenty of people who work well, are smart, and make a lot of money; however, God doesn’t need renowned people. God only seeks those who hold onto “only Gospel.” Through them, God does what nobody can do and leads them to places where nobody can go. God wants the entire world to hear the Gospel and gain life. For God’s earnest wishes, He has left behind and hidden those who have found their answer in “only Jesus Christ.” This is the method in which God works.

2. God’s Time Schedule
God can do all things, is omniscient, and takes responsibility for the start, process, and finish of all works. Joseph being sold into slavery, being falsely accused and imprisoned, the turbulent anecdotes and meetings he had before becoming the governor were parts of the journey that fulfilled God’s will. Whether answers come immediately, greater answers come later, or you don’t receive expected answers, you must remember that everything is within God’s time schedule.

The greatest answer is discovering God’s will in the fields that you’ll go, the people whom you’ll meet, and in all works.

Dear God, grant me both the strength to change the age and the Word to save it. Help me to live today by preparing for Your covenant. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

* Why Should Disciples Anticipate Worship?

Issues won’t arise just because you missed one or two weeks of Sunday worship. However, your unseen spiritual condition will undergo great change.
When your spiritual tension is loosened, you’ll become spiritually numb and regardless of age, you’ll become indifferent to the things of God.
What is most important to you?
Is giving worship and worship time your number one priority?
