God is all-powerful over everyone and everything—but not all that happens is good. While evil abounds, God’s Spirit and divine intervention are at work: “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” (Romans 8:28). But God’s promise isn’t for everyone—it’s for His children who love Him (present tense), walking in obedience (now).
Whenever difficulties arise,
God works on behalf of His faithful ones in right standing with Him. The “all
things” are the troubles, trials, and misfortunes that come to us, yet work for
our good—pointing us to look to God for help and our final home in heaven,
exposing the truth of ourselves and producing a changed disposition (Psalm 119:67,
71). Circumstances that sometimes make no sense test your faith, but God always
supplies a way to escape life’s temptations and turmoil’s effects (1
Corinthians 10:13). Belief in the One who holds and controls all of eternity
will remind you to look to Him for reassurance, guidance, and safekeeping. Thank
God today that He is always at work with His children devotedly walking with
Him.
