Lesson or Blessing? The Kingdom Key of Good & Evil

Lesson or Blessing? The Kingdom Key of Good & Evil

READ | Deuteronomy 30:11-20

I have set before you this day the choices of life and good, and

death and evil (Deuteronomy 30:15).”

We see good in every situation. Every situation and life event that takes place in our lives is good because it is either a lesson or a blessing. “All things work together for good to them that love God to them who are called according to God’s purpose (Romans 8:28).” Like Joseph, we understand that even what people mean for evil God uses for our good (Genesis 50:20).

Good that is not apparent is a lesson. The Good that is apparent is a blessing. The coin is a symbol of this Kingdom Key of Good and Evil. Everything that happens in our lives is like a two-sided coin. A coin has two sides: heads or tails. We can choose heads or tails. Heads is the positive view. Tails is the negative view. Coins can be flipped so that even if it lands on tails, we can flip it to heads.

As stated in today’s scripture, God promised to make us the head only and not the tail. Therefore, when negative thoughts and perceptions come to our minds, we can flip the coin or change the thought to heads or good. Although the coin has a tail side, we choose to focus on the head side. Although evil does exist, it is not our focus.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...
  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God. Why am I having this test, this trial, this tribulation? So God can get the glory. Why am I experiencing this persecution, this headache, this pain? So, God can get the glory. Why am I witnessing this miracle, sign, or wonder? So, God can get the glory. Why am I having this challenge in my local assembly, in my ministry, in my business, and in my organization? So God can get the...

There’s a Grace on Your Life

  There’s a Grace on Your Life "By grace you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."    Ephesians 2:8 (KSB)    In Ephesians chapter 2, one word stands out repeatedly: grace . But what is grace? Grace is God’s unmerited favor, His love poured out on us, not based on anything we've done or failed to do. It’s not about what we think or don’t think. It’s simply a gift. A beautiful, divine surprise.  Imagine receiving an unexpected bonus at work, you did your job, and suddenly you're given more than you earned. That’s grace. It comes when you least expect it and fills you with joy and wonder. This is how God extends His grace freely, abundantly, and lovingly.  Throughout Ephesians 2, Paul highlights how grace is woven into our salvation. “By grace you are saved” means you didn’t do it yourself. Salvation is the awakening in your spirit to the truth that  you are God's beloved .   ...
