Destined to Reign

"You can be sure that God will take care of everything you need, his generosity exceeding even yours in the glory that pours from Jesus." Philippians 4:19 (MSG)


      I will never tire of this verse for as long as I live, for it shows every characteristic of God that is necessary for us to navigate the most difficult terrain. It also demonstrates the foolishness of your efforts to figure out all your problems on your own knowing full well that God can always go above and beyond anything you ask think or desire.


       Consider for a moment Adam in the garden of Eden. How God said to him, "Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground." (Gen 1:28b) His desire for us was to rule, but not in ways that were just enough to get us by... but to have to dominion. Yet some of us have dominion over nothing, and that's simply because we've turned away from the One who has always desired to give that very dominion to us. Don't let your circumstances get the best of you, Let Him get the best of your circumstance. That's been His desire since the dawn of time!
