A Thought For Today:

But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: Philippines 1:6

What God Starts

The Apostle Paul in writting to the Philippine church makes this bold statement tThe Apostle Paul in writing to the Philippine church makes this bold statement that he was confident that God was not only the author of his beginning but of his journey and subsequent end. What God starts with you and I is not always noticeable. We get glimpses here and there of his goodness, grace and mercy in the everyday affairs of our lives.

There are certain times that we feel stuck in fear that we can’t go on and on those days is when the Lord changes are the greatest, for we have a God who is taking us to the Red Sea, and has opened the Red Sea for us to travel across. We have so many Red Sea moments after a course of time we can’t help but to see God’s head apart our lives. We look where we started and we see the tremendous things that God has done in our lives and we can’t help but to look with great awe and splendor at what God is doing.

The entire thing becomes possible because it was God who sent his only begotten son to mankind to die for us on a tree. In order that we could have a relationship with him and have our sin debt forgiven which we could never do on our own.

It is in the light of this experience that the apostle recounts all of his journey and It is in the light of this experience that the apostle recounts all of his journey and finds it impossible not to know that God was not only with him from the start of his destiny, but continues to be with them through thick and thin whatever trouble started. He couldn’t help but to notice that God was awesome in all his ways. We read in 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. God always pays for what he orders and your life is most precious to him. He has a divine stake in your success.
