“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is He that calleth you, Who also will do it.” 1Th 5:23-24

Divine Providence is the unfolding of Divine purpose in time. God’s eternal purpose and providence is essentially and vitally connected with the Lord Jesus Christ and His redemption of those whom He has loved with an everlasting love and His bringing them to eternal glory. All things in time are ordained by Almighty God to this glorious two-fold end; the glory of God and the eternal good of the children of God - “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose” Romans 8:28. Everything, EVERYTHING! that transpires in time, from beginning to end, is concerned with the salvation and preservation of God’s elect and His glory therein.

There is no person or no thing that He brings into existence that does not move according to this, His great design. Every atom is under subjection to Divine Omnipotence to the praise of the glory of the same. We therefore confidently conclude without fear or trepidation that God and His Christ is and will be glorified in all things and we, His people, are saved with an everlasting salvation.

My brethren, be assured, every trial, every sorrow, every affliction, every failure, every success, every joy, every happiness, is meticulously attended by Divine Omniscience, Omnipresence and scrutiny, to perfection - “Faithful is He that calleth you, Who also will do it”. Our Lord Jesus Christ, “Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high” Hebrews 1:3. May our God give us rest in His blessed Son knowing that present and future history is charted by unfailing love and certain success.
