Rather than a cause for self-indulgence, compromise, rebellion or any other sin, the doctrine of providence is actually a sure ground for trust and a spur to faithfulness.
Take the healing steps that restored Joseph’s Family:
Allow God to work out forgiveness in your heart.
Know that God’s nature is forgiveness.
Deal with anger and bitterness.
When you face a faith-test, are you able to trust God? Can you obey Him, even when it stretches your faith?
Blessings follow when we stand firm in God’s promises.
Biblical wisdom is about walking obediently with God and applying His truths to our lives.
Wisdom is the ability to see future consequences of present actions.
Ask the Lord to show you how to be merciful as He is. He reaches out to the unlovable, befriends those the world would rather forget and touches those who seem untouchable.
Regardless of how tough life can get, God requires one thing of us: Obedience. Doing what is right comes with a price, but the cost of following God is worth every sacrifice we must make.
