Predestination and Preparation
( 1Corinthians 2 : 9 )
Introduction: The parents who have planned the education and future of their children prepare something to accomplish them in advance. God is the Alpha and the Omega. Since He already knows the beginning and the end, He predestines everything and provides previously to fulfill His predestined will.
1. God prepares everything necessary for His predestination
혻혻 1) God's predestination for Joseph's life - He revealed it in Joseph's dream, that is, the prime혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻 minister of Egypt (Ge 37:7, 9)혻혻혻
혻혻 2) God provides the process to fulfill His predestination
혻혻혻혻혻 - Joseph's brothers' betrayal, Midianite merchents,혻 Potiphar's servant, his wife's false charge, the혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻 prison of the guard, and so on.혻
2. God will carry out what He has predestined (Isa 44:6, 45:4)
혻혻 1) Canaan, the goal of the Israelites, was the land that God had predestined.(Ex 6:8, 3:17)
혻혻 2) When God's predestination was challenged
혻혻혻혻혻 (1) When the Israelites faced despair at the Red Sea (Ex 14:4)
혻혻혻혻혻 (2) The hand of God Almighty removed the obstacle that blocked His predestination. (Ex 23:20-22)
혻혻혻혻혻 (3) Bitter water in Mara, food, meat.(Ex 15:25, ??78:15, 24, 27)
3. We can have bold faith when we know the predestination of God
혻혻 1) Moses' strong faith at the Red Sea (Ex 14:10-14)
혻혻 2) The reason that Joshua could be courageous
혻혻혻혻혻 - God let him know His predestination (Jos 1:1-9)
4. God's predestination for us
혻혻 1) Salvation is God's predestination (Eph 1:3-6)
혻혻혻혻혻 - That's why He has prepared our ways until we enter the kingdom of heaven.
혻혻혻혻혻혻혻혻 He has prepared for us to overcome all trials.혻 (2Th 2:13)
혻혻 2) Our lives are predestined (Ps 139:16, Ps 139:16, Pr 16:3-4)
혻혻 3) If we know God's predestination, we can believe with courage.
혻혻혻혻혻 - God has prepared a countermeasure for every trouble. (Ps 68:19, Jn 16:33, Ro 8:31-35, 37)
Conclusion: If we understand God's predestination, accept it in our hearts, and advance with strong faith,
He will take care of us.
