See God's hand covering you

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. - Romans 8:28

God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son to die for the world so whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have life and life more abundantly! The moment Christ Jesus cried out "It is finished!", all our sins are forgiven. Those who believes in the finished work of Christ are grafted into the kingdom of God. They are called sons and daughters of God.

When we are in Christ, God watches over us. Even way before we acknowledged Jesus as our savior and Lord, God already watched and is still watching over us. He prepares our paths and future and ultimately our destiny. And when God is in control over our lives, all things will turn our for our good. He is a good God and He only has good thoughts toward us and plans to prosper us.

The bible says God's desire is to see us in the pink of health as our soul prospers. He wants us to be abundantly provided for and to be in robust health. He wants to bless us with more than enough so that we can enjoy His blessings and be a blessing to those around us. He wants us to reign in this world!

In order to reign in this world, He wants us to rest in the finished work of Christ at the cross. For when we rest, He will not. I am not referring to a lifestyle of not doing any work but a life full of His shalom within. Know that God is always guiding us in His master plan for us. He will lead us one step at a time. Eventually, He will lead us to where He wants us to be. We don't have to worry of how to arrive at our destinations, we just rest.

Even when we are going through some really rough patches of our lives, be assured that God IS still working behind the scene to make sure we will come out of these situations victoriously. Even when there seems no light at the end of the tunnel, just know that God is there with you. He will not leave nor forsake us. And He will turn things around for our good!

See His hand of protection covering you in every way. By the shed blood of Jesus, we are indeed protected all round all the times. See Him carrying us in our moments of weakness. See Him leading us in our moments of blindness. See how He breakthroughs for us in our areas of lack.

God is a gracious God. He who spun the universal into existence will see that all our needs are taken care of, regardless of how big or small they may be. Hallelujah!
