God's Will

"Thou couldst have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above" (John 19:11).

Nothing that is not God's will can come into the life of one who trusts and obeys God. This fact should be enough to make our life one of endless thanksgiving and joy. For "God's will is the one hopeful, glad, and glorious thing in the world"; and it is working  for us all the time, andfor our favor if we are surrendered and believing.

Someone who was passing through deep affliction once wrote to a friend: "Is it not a glorious thing to know that, no difference how unjust a thing may be, or how certain it may seem to be from Satan, by the time it reaches us it is 'God's will' for us, and will work for our own good ? For all things work together for good to us who love God. And even of the betrayal, Christ said, "The cup which my Father gave me, shall I not drink it?" We are truly blessed if we are living in the center of God's will. All the attacks that Satan, through others' sin, can hurl against us are not only powerless to harm us, but are turned into blessings on the way.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Borrowed..........
