“In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace” (Ephesians 1:7, NIV) There is nothing you have ever gone through that God can not changed. He can change your story from ridicule to miracle. He can redeem the things that happened to you, using them for his glory. The Bible says, “ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Rom. 8: 28.
When you think your situation is peculiar, the three lessons you must learn are:
1. God Knows: God is all-knowing.and omnipresent. 1 Peter 3:12; Psalm 33:1819; Psalm 34:15-16. God sees and hears you; He will surely act in your favour.
2.God Cares: One major killer of many people today is carrying the loads that doesn’t belong to them. What God alone should carry, no man can carry. Allow Him to bear your yoke because He cares. 1 Peter 5: 7; Psalm 55:22; Philippians 4:6.Instead of worrying about what you cannot do, sing praises to the Captain of our army.
3. Christ Redeems: Jesus Christ replaces you on the cross of sin, suffering and shame. Therefore you should not give up. Galatians 1:4; Ephesians 1:7; Galatians 3:13; Isaiah 44:22; 1 Peter 1:18-19.
Stop living in your past defeat and failure. Begin to see yourself in the victory purchased with the blood of Jesus Christ. As you do that. the Lord will put a new song in your mouth in Jesus name.
