Be Encouraged - All Things Are of God



For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things: to Whom be glory for ever. Amen.” -ROMANS 11:36 [KJV]
Is there anything that comes to pass in the life of a believer (or an unbeliever) that is not appointed, ordained and purposed by God? According to this verse, all things originate with, are determined by and are brought to pass BY GOD. That being the case, why do His people complain of things which He brings into our lives? Why do we murmur like those who don’t know God?

Discontentedness gives evidence of our depravity and the inconsistency of our faith. If we believe He sovereignly rules all things, let us not grumble about what He does, for what He does is good, right, according to His eternal will and for our welfare. If we rely on Him to always do what is best for us, then let us cease moaning about our troubles and rest in Him Who does all things well.

Nothing is more damaging to our testimony and daily walk before others than to say that we believe in the absolute authority of God over everything and then gripe about what happens. May God forgive us for our complaining and bring us to joyfully submit to His will knowing that what He brings to pass in our lives is the accomplishment of His eternal decree and will work for the spiritual good of all His children.
