Lesson 2 Spiritual Blessing (2)
3. Clothing of Faith
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).
we know
Today's text begins with the words, “We know.” What do you mean you know? This means that the words of the text are absolutely certain. For example, there are some things we know for sure. They know each other's names, where they live, what they do, and so on. In the same way, we also bless you to know for sure through the contents of this text. There are five things here.
those who love God
First, we bless you to know for sure about those who love God. Who loves God? He is the one who endures temptation. (James 1:12) This is when we have various desires, we give up those desires. What greed do I have? There will be greed for wealth, wealth, and greed for food, reason, sleeping, games, playing, and worldly pleasures. It is to throw away those things and focus on the life of a disciple who follows the Lord, such as prayer, evangelism, nurturing, and visiting. Not only will he receive the crown of life, but he will also receive all kinds of good gifts and perfect gifts from God the Father. God prepares and provides abundantly all the necessary things for those who love Him. Believe it! But it cannot be known by the human eye, ear, or heart. It is only seen through the Holy Spirit. May you be filled with the Holy Spirit. When we strive to become disciples who follow the Lord, we receive the filling of the Holy Spirit. Through this, I bless you that you will continue to love God more and more while looking at the things God has prepared and being patient.
as intended
Second, I bless you for knowing the will of God. God works everything according to the will of his heart. It means that He has predestined us to be saved and inherited from eternity. Regardless of our deeds, this is a gift of God's grace. The salvation given to us enables us to receive the most precious eternal life, which cannot be obtained with any money, science or anything else. Because of this, we can praise the wonderful glory of redemption that has given us eternal life. God's will is to give me salvation, and for this I will praise God. I bless you with this kind of salvation and praise.
Not only that, but God's will is that we come to God through faith in Jesus. That is why we strive to pray. The content of God's willed prayer asks that we may be filled with all the fulness of God, so that we may have the strength of the inner man and have Christ in our hearts by faith, so that we may know the love of Christ, which is rooted and grounded in love, and which overflows knowledge . We want the glory from generation to generation and everlasting to the one who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3). In fact, God provides abundantly every need for food, clothing, and shelter. I bless you that you can offer more important prayers.
For those who are called
Thirdly, I bless you to know about those who are called. To be called means to be invited. What were you invited to? invited as saints. Who are the saints? He lives in grace and peace. I bless you with such grace and peace. And the saints have different content of thanks. Thank you for spreading the faith throughout the world. They always intercede without ceasing in prayer, and they desperately want to see each other. And I want to give them spiritual gifts to strengthen them and comfort each other. And waiting for the appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ, may that day be established as blameless. God is a faithful God who brings us into fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ so that we can live the life of a saint.
Those who are called have power and wisdom. It is through Christ. God chooses the foolish and weak to shame the wise and strong. Because of this, no one can boast before God. Our wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption are alone in Christ the Lord. However, there are heretics who deny Jesus Christ in this world. You have to fight hard with them. May we be overflowing with power and wisdom through Christ.
all things work together
Fourth, I hope you understand the saying that we can achieve it by working together. It means working together in combination. Bad things and good things are not separate from each other, but these things eventually become one good. For that reason, we bless you always with the joy of never despairing, persevering in hope, and finally enjoying goodness.
What is a line?
Fifth, I bless you for knowing about doing good. Just as a good tree produces good fruit, I bless you that a good God will surely give good results. The Lord tells the young man who came to him, “What good deed must I do to inherit eternal life?” Sell everything you have, give it to the poor, and follow Jesus. What is a line? Devotion and following the Lord is good.
To the disciples who have left everything and followed the Lord, the Lord is sitting on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes, receiving many times what they have rejected, and inheriting eternal life. But the first will be last, and the last will be first. A life of devotion has nothing to do with the age of the believed time. At the latest, you can follow the Lord with more dedication.
The heart is important to dedication. A good person produces goodness from the accumulated goodness of his heart. Evil people do evil. That is, we must not only speak, but also act. He leads a wise life by building his house on the rock.
We must have the right values for good. what is good When Nathanael asked if anything good could come out of Nazareth, Philip said to come. When the world asks, ‘Is there anything good in the church?’, you should ask them to come. When Nathanael meets the Lord and confesses that you are the king of Israel, the son of God, the Lord will answer you to see greater things, so I believe that those who enter the church will see the Lord's great works.
