How can bad things turn out good? There is a paradox of the Spirit that many fail to understand. i.e. (He that would save his life must lose it. The first shall be last, and the last first. In order to receive you must give. The things highly esteemed among men are an abomination to God. etc.)
Now how does that relate to us? He brought Israel to the brink of disaster at the edge of the Red Sea, (to the natural mind a big mistake). Yet He delivered them with great victory and defeated their enemy at the same time. The widow woman preparing her last meal, was instructed to give it to the Prophet instead. That proved to be her saving grace. An old woman's only son died, and was being carried to the graveyard when along came Jesus, a great opportunity for a miracle. Jesus was led to the Cross to die in His prime of life, a seeming defeat to all who watched, but to us salvation from sin and death! So you see, not everything that looks like failure or disaster is how it appears to be. Next time you have a problem, just remember it is God's great opportunity to give you a miracle. Believe and see. Stand still and see the deliverance of our God!
