“True Christians recognize and understand that God is using everything that occurs in their lives for their good (Romans 8:28). Nothing happens outside the providence of Him. Therefore, if that which appears to be evil closes in upon us, if we are threatened with the loss of material possessions, the loss of freedom by being cast into jail, or even the loss of life, we can still praise the Lord and worship Him as King of kings and Lord of lords. The prophet Habakkuk said it well: “Though the fig tree should not blossom and there be no fruit on the vines, though the yield of the olive should fail and the fields produce no food, though the flock should be cut off from the fold and there be no cattle in the stalls, yet I will exult in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation” (Habakkuk 3:17-18).”
