But this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life! John 9

There’s this notion that we are who we are because of our parents. Many say that we inherit sickness or sin from our father or mother. The bible teaches that it is not the sin of the parents that sickness or affliction happens but it happens so that the work of God might be displayed in our lives.

I believe that your weakness, disability, past or sin when placed in the hands of a Mighty God is turned around and changed so that God will be glorified through us.

It is the work of God, who is perfecting us daily and not our own work. The word says that "He who begun a good work in us will see it to completion". When God works in us, we are not recognised because He makes us new in Him. Like the blind man in John 9, the people knew who he was but when Jesus touched and changed him, they said that it 'looked liked him'. When you encounter Jesus, more of Jesus is seen in you and less of yourself.

God came for the imperfect, the flawed, the lost, the rejected so that when others see the change, then they will know that only God can do this thing.

Let Jesus Christ in your heart so that the work of God may be displayed in your life. He wants to show off and show you off to the world, all for His glory. 

God bless!
