BETTER IS THE END OF A MATTER
Ecclesiastes 7:8
Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.
The word of God makes it clear that the life of a child of God is always going towards a perfect directing. By this, I mean perfection in holiness, righteousness and even in life generally.
The Bible says
Proverbs 4:18
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
The end of a matter certainly, a cording to God's plan and purpose is meant to be better that every beginning. That is why God tells us not to forget the days of little beginning.
Job 8:7
Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.
For children of God and believers who truly believe, God has a very progressive plan for them. This he declares in Jeremiah.
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
God always have an end in view in all that He does for his children and that end is of good and not of evil. Haliluyah! What a great good God we serve ~ Mighty Mighty Jesus, our kingsman redeemer.
When we begin the journey of salvation, our God will take us gradually from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of His very own marvelous light, doing marvelous things for us ~ healing us, purifying us, cleansing us from all unrighteousness and above all preparing us for our heavenly home where there is no pian, no sorrow, no weeping. Oh my God, heaven is my home. Hear Him in 3 John 2
3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
That is exactly His plan and purpose of the lives of every believer.
Oh why am I passing through adversity right now you may be asking? The Lord say
James 1:2
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
Why count it all joy? Simple, better is the end of a matter than the beginning thereof.
Can't you hear him say to your spirit right now. Rejoice, December is here again, a period of harvest and celebration, I way rejoice always. I can hear my saviour say to you and all believers I am going to crown this year for you with my goodness and you are in your season of fatness as have been testified in
Psalms 65:11
Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.
I hear you again in my spirit, child of God where ever you are saying, but I am in pains of sorrow of sicknesses and diseases, in sorrow of shame and ridicles of lack and of wants but I hear the your testimonies as recorded in
Psalms 30:11
Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
Our good God is always there for us to ensure that we arrive safely at His plan direction for us hence he is saying to you, I mean you right now and always
Isaiah 43:2
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
In conclusion, serve God and allow him walk you through a life filled with joy and testimonies on an increasing measure. He never fails, He never sleeps nor slumbers.
Psalms 121:3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Are you passing through adversities, are you serving God sincerely, is the year coming to an end, is your life tending towards an end, hold onto Jesus. He says in Matthew
Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Give your life to Him and wait for His promised rest. Talk to your maker right now and say
Lord Jesus, here I am, just the way I am, your child, I run to you to stay, accept me as your child as I confess you as my Lord a d personal savior, purge me of all unrighteousness and sin now and forever more in Jesus name. Amen.
Congratulations.
