episode 23: CIPHER - Understanding The Faith
We need to have a positive mentality, in spite of any negative event because God will always come through.
As believers, our convictions should be based on the word of God, we know that all things are working together for our good. Romans 8:28
Sometimes, you are angry about the outcome of a situation, not knowing that you dodged a bullet, and God saved your life.
Abraham understood this, and it was his mentality even when God told him to sacrifice Isaac. He knew that if God wants to take Isaac, he has plans to raise him up. Genesis 22:2, Hebrews 11:17-19.
God is not in support of bad, but in spite of the bad, God can bring out good.
We don’t always know it as we should and in the present, it may seem difficult, but we know that all things work together for our good.
It takes confidence to trust in the plan of Jesus.
Two instances in the Bible that point to the redemptive work of Christ:
????The story of Jonah in the belly of the fish.
????The call for Abraham to sacrifice Isaac to God.
