Divine Providence
The storyline of the Bible is a story of divine Providence. Every page, behind every prophecy and in every promise is the sovereign and often hidden hand of God!
The Westminster's Confession (Chapter 5) defines God's Providence as: "God the good Creator of all things, in His infinite power and wisdom does uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, to the end for the which they were created, according unto His infallible foreknowledge, and the free and immutable counsel of His own will; to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, infinite goodness, and mercy."
A preacher once stated that "there is not one rogue molecule in the universe". Nothing escapes God's providence!
This is a comforting truth! God is no dead beat dad! He supports and maintains what He has created! He knows all things perfectly, is all-powerful, is infinitely wise and everything is aimed at His glory! If its for His glory then its for our good.
SO HERE'S THE REMINDER: All things are working out for Your good! Stay calm and rest in His promises!
