IS FAILURE REALLY FAILING FOR THE BELIEVER?

Is failure really failing for the Believers of Jesus Christ? I am convinced that "failure" for the Believer is not the same as the secular understanding or interpretation the world defines it as.

From a secular perspective, failing means missing an assigned mark or goal or not meeting a specific qualification.

Failure for the Believer means that something is missing, or whatever it is that we've considered being a failure is just part of a whole. Bottom line, SOMETHING IS MISSING OR NOT COMPLETED!

Indulge me for a few minutes as I unveil my understanding of this mystery. Biblical spiritual law dictates the following, "And we know (The Believers) that all things (Good and Bad) work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose" Romans 8:28

To understand this mystery of failure concerning the Believer. the key resides in the phrase of the scripture mentioned above, "ALL THINGS." All things are a combination of good and evil. Of course, as Christians, we've been erroneously taught to assume that "all things" suggest only good things. So, in essence, this scripture says that GOOD+BAD or BAD+GOOD either way will=GOOD FOR THE BELIEVER! In any scenario, THE PHRASE "all things" suggests that no matter how the situation presents itself to the Believer. Its conclusion must benefit the Believer.

Therefore, if what you're experiencing does not equal good, IT IS AN INDICATOR THAT IT'S NOT THE END!

I want to say to someone this morning who feels or has felt as if you're a failure or others have labeled you as a failure, the term failure for you is just a red flag SHOUTING.......... Something is missing, and for what you or others have concluded as a failure, the proper connection must be attached to your "failure," which will eventually produce good for you!

To seal this mystery, let's look at another spiritual law to bring this baby home....... "In everything (Good & bad) give thanks: for this is the WILL OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS CONCERNING YOU" 1 Thessalonians 5:18. In other words, we must view the fortunate and the unfortunate experiences in our lives as a part of the overall plan of God to manufacture the end result of good for our lives.

As I said, failure is a good thing if we understand it from a biblical perspective which will always indicate that either something is missing or whatever we've supposedly "failed" at is not completed, or it's not the end of the matter......... But in any event, good or bad, we must thank God because not only is it his will for us at that particular time, but it MUST CONCLUDE IN GOOD FOR US, THE BELIEVERS OF JESUS CHRIST...........

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part, but when that which is perfect (complete) is come (full understanding), then that which was in part shall be done away with 1 Corinthians 13:9-10.

My people are failing because they lack available knowledge, Hosea 4:6........
