LECTURES FROM PASTOR W.F KUMUYI, SEE GOD'S HAND IN ALL THINGS.

Event don't just happen; God's providence direct, upholds and governs all things. God reigns is the affairs of humans. "Because nothing ever happen by chance"

He has a plan that cannot be be fauted; He is in control of everything, both great and small and he causes all thing to work together for your good (Romans 8:28). Understand that God can make unpleasant situations work for your greater good.

Tell yourself that God is aware of your situation, and he's doing something about it. Remember, he has the whole world in the palm of his hand. He's the Alpha and Omega; He knows the end from the beginning and what to do to meet your expectations.

So depend on Him at all times, and always remind yourself that

He cares about the tiniest detail of your life:
There's nothing that happens to you that God is not aware of. He knows when you're on top of the world and when you're cast down . Nothing escapes His notice.

He's not unconcerned about what happens to you, the scriptures say even the hair on your head is numbered so that non is cut off without Him knowing it matthew (10:30, mattheu 6:25-32). In your darkest hour, He promises "I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee" Hence, be rest assured that he'll succour you when you're down.

He uses everything and waste nothing: Nothing happens to anyone except God permits it He makes no mistakes . this may include events that seem tragic, So, whatever He permits to happen to you is meant to mold and prepare you for great things in life.

Who would have thought that joseph's ordeal in the pit, in potiphar's house and in the egyptian prison were in preparation for his exaltation to the throne in egypt where he would be used as the instrument to save isreal from famine. Not even his brothers knew that they were aiding Gods plan when they did what they did

God has everything in control and has set in motion plans to safeguard and accomplish His expectations in your life.

His ultimate purpose is to mold you into the very image of His dear son and prepare you for heaven: sometimes, words of encouragement like this one seem unbelievable because u just can't understand why God would allow trials, temptation, and even calamities in your ilfe, yet He loves you.

God's heart desire is to see you grow into the very image of the lord jesus christ (Romans 8:29) and of course, to give you eternal life

God wants you to be a reflection of His dear son and this cannot happen in your comfort zone. Temptations, trials, and afflictions are meant to test your faith and convictions so that you I'll be made perfect (James 13:3-4).
Moreover, whatever you suffer here on earth is just a light affliction; it cannot be compared to eternal suffering in the lake of fire, if you miss heaven.

So relax. See God's hand in everything, and lean on him to make things turn out well in your life.
