“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. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren…”
It is no surprise that not everything that comes our way is what we want. Yes, in fact, in life we deal with many problems—opportunities. The difference between a problem and an opportunity is how we look at the issue. In the Christian walk of Faith, we are Not promised everything will be easy. As a matter of Fact, we are told we will be Tested, Tried and Persecuted…
~JESUS~ said:
“And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved…”
We will go through the Fire, but we will come out as Pure—Gold. There will Not be more put on us than we can stand, but with every Test, a way of Escape…
How can we be made into The Likeness and The Image of ~GOD~ if the old man—woman is Not Crucified? We are instructed to put off the old man and put on the new, which is in Christ ~JESUS~. We are to be as a vessel in The Potter’s Hand to be Molded into The Desires and Image of The Potter. We are His workmanship. We are Not our own. While none of us enjoy the Molding and Pruning process, it is necessary in order for us to become Christ Like. This process is what helps us to Grow in our Relationship with ~GOD~. At the same time, know most assuredly by Faith, that ~GOD~ will meet the needs of other people just like He has for us…
Sometimes I become more concerned about my comfort than ~GOD’s~ will, then The Holy Spirit always refocuses me (which I am very thankful for). Could it be ~GOD’s~ ultimate goal for our life on earth is Not comfort, but Character Development? I personally do not enjoy going through the Fire, but I thank ~GOD~ that He puts me through the Fire in order to develop my character. In this I benefit in the ability to point others to Christ with assurance that He will Transform them as He has Transformed me…
Are you willing to take the next step in ~GOD’s~ Development Plan for you? Step out of your comfort zone today and allow The Potter to Mold you. He has a Plan for you, and that is to be a World—Changer in Him…
