He Turns It For The Good

As we come to a close in our devotional time together, we’ve been able to tackle some subjects around the sovereignty of God; how He’s with us in the tough times and how He’s forever faithful. You may still be questioning; if God is with us, fighting for us, faithful, and sovereign, why am I facing this painful and difficult trial?

This is a question that has likely been asked since the beginning of time and will be asked for generations to come. The truth is that we live in a world full of imperfection, evil and an enemy who wants to inflict pain upon our lives. This enemy delights in bringing terrible situations our way. However, I am ever grateful we serve a God who is able to take even the toughest circumstances and turn them into messages of His glory.

Though God doesn’t cause these situations to happen to us, He promises that He will take these situations and use them to accomplish His perfect plan. It may be tough to see that today and I can completely relate! However, I also know that whenever I’ve put my trust in God He has always been faithful and made beauty from ashes.

If you sense the enemy is trying to bring harm on your life, turn to God fully. Let go and trust Him to turn the situation around and use it for His glory!
