1 Samuel 2:8 Our text passage reveals God raises the beggar from the dust, and lifts the needy from the ash heap to make them sit with princes and inherit a throne of honor. In other words, its God who turns the lowly into highly placed people, He turns those who lack into people who are abundant in riches, and He raises the head and horn of those who are bowed down. The Lord is the one who makes royalty out of those that are regarded as common and despised. If that is not a miracle I don't know what else is. If that is not mysterious, then tell me what else is. Our text passage shows God lifts and transforms mysteriously! God is a God of mysterious liftings! Psalm 3:3 God's ways are beyond man. The way God lifts men up and shows mercy to a person is beyond what a human mind can orchestrate. No man can plan for you what God has planned for you. No man can do for you what God can do for you.

Jonathan consented to David's becoming the next king, which was to Jonathan's own giving up of what could hav...

Matthew 27: 57-66 Matthew 28: 1-8 Our text passages shows that God is a God who sets things up. He is a planner, a great mastermind and an orchestrator. The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ was a master set up from the throne room of God. If the spirit and human enemies of Jesus knew what they were doing was playing into God's plan for Jesus they would not have done what they did. 1 Corinthians 2:8 We will do well aligning with the Lord's plan, will, and purposes. Romans 8:28 When the Lord is involved, what looks like a closed door is actually an open door, what looks like a dead end is the beginning of a new chapter and what looks like a closed case is an entrance into a whole new world.
