GOD IS WORKING BEHIND THE SCENES

Scripture

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord. — Isaiah 55:8

Message

There are moments when life seems confusing. Doors close unexpectedly, prayers appear unanswered, and circumstances seem to move in the opposite direction of what we hoped for.

In such seasons, it is easy to assume that God is inactive. Yet some of God's greatest works happen behind the scenes.

While Joseph sat in prison, God was positioning him for leadership. While David was tending sheep, God was preparing a king. While Jesus lay in the tomb, God was preparing the greatest victory in history.

Never judge God's activity by what you can currently see. His hands are at work even when His plans are hidden.

Trust Him in the waiting. Trust Him in the uncertainty. Trust Him when the pieces do not seem to fit together.

One day you will look back and realize that God was working all along.

Golden Nugget

God is always working, even when you cannot see the evidence.
