why do things turn out differently?

ptr. jojo fernandez

main passage

1 timothy 4:4-5

we are to view God’s creation as good, receive it with thanksgiving, and sanctify it through the Word of God and prayer

all of God’s creation is good, when used according to His purposes
however, these can also be used by the enemy to lead us astray and become apostates

our acceptance and use of these should be guided by His Word, which guarantees that we live in ways that glorify Him
thanksgiving is the key to receiving God’s gifts rightly

let us guard against any false teachings that would diminish the goodness of God’s creation and instead embrace all that He has made with a heart of gratitude

as we do so, we are called to live in holiness, setting apart every area of our lives for His glory
may we walk in the fullness of His blessing, sanctified through His Word
and prayer
