"This is the
day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."
Psalm 118:24
You never can tell about a
day. We don't have the ability to see into the day and know what is going to
happen in it. We just have to live it minute by minute as it unfolds before
us. Some times that unfolding brings good things into our lives. Some times it
brings tragedy, heartache, pain, or bad reports. Who can know? God does. He
knows what lies ahead each day. He sees the end of the day at the beginning.
Actually, He has already seen the end of each day that has yet to be before the
foundation of the world. He foresees the future from the
past.
Knowing this should bring us
great comfort because that means that though things may happen in a day that
take us by surprise, nothing takes Him by surprise. He has already seen it.
And not only has He seen it, He has made provision ahead of time for it. God
doesn't come up with a plan for the events that happen in our life as they
happen. He doesn't try to decide what to do on the spur of the moment when
faced with the situation. He doesn't try to figure out the best route to take
when the situation presents itself. He has already decided, planned and figured
out what to do. For example, He saw the fall of man before He ever created
mankind. It was at that point that He came up with the plan of redemption, not
at the fall when they disobeyed and ate from the tree.
Whatever you are facing
today, God has already seen it in the past, and He has already made a provision
for it. He isn't trying now to come up with a solution, He already has one. So
trust that He has seen ahead what you are going through, it isn't taking Him by
surprise, and He already has a plan to work all things together for your good
through it.
Have a great day. Because
God has already seen this day before it ever got here, He knows what will happen
and He already has a plan in place to take care of it. So trust Him.
