According Isaiah 46:10, GOD declares the end of a thing at the beginning. In other words if GOD starts something, HE does not start something to start it, HE only starts what's finished. GOD never looks at our past and remind us where we come from. HE looks at our future or our finish and informs us of where we're going. GOD works on finished products.
Philippians tells us that the work HE began, HE will finish. We can say it this way, HE has finished what HE begins. Can you identify anything in your life, from your birth to this moment of reading this blog, where GOD started something in you? You may not know where you are in the process on the way to your finish, but you can identify somewhere in your life GOD started something. That's enough for you to know b/c of HIS consistent nature that you are a finished product; so do not be discouraged, discontented, or frustrated with the process.
The proof of this is in the life of Joseph(Genesis chapters 37-41). GOD never told Joseph the process, HE only showed him the finish. If GOD were to show us the process, we would tell HIM never mind. Think about it! Joseph had to be rejected by his family (process), thrown into a pit (process), sold down into Egypt as a slave(process), lied on by the Master's wife (process), thrown into solitary confinement in prison (process). And after years of being there, he comes to his dominion as great ruler...he becomes what GOD showed HIM when he started. GOD showed him his finish, but he never told him the process.
So you see you may not know where you are, you feel like it's all for naught, and all that has been done against you is wrong. And you may even question, where is God in all of this? I like to say to you, you didn't pick GOD, HE picked you and you're on your way to your wealthy place. HE never tells us how HE finishes us, HE only keeps telling us we are a finished product.
Dominion is calling you!
