He had previously purposed and set forth in Him,

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Therefore my dear ones, as you have always obeyed my
suggestions, so now, not only with the enthusiasm you would
show in my presence, but much more because I am absent,
work out to full completion your own salvation with reverence,
awe and trembling (with serious caution against temptation).
(Not in your own strength) for it is God Who is all the while
effectually at work in you ( energizing and creating the power
and desire), both to will and to work for His good pleasure.
(Philippians 2. 12&13).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
“All things work together for good to them that love God
and who are called according to His purpose.”
(Romans 8.28).
The ultimate good is our being in Christ eternally.The Good
in all waiting and wanting for the Redemption is being with
our Redeemer. The very love of God towards us assures us
that all will be well.
Everything Works together in harmony to the ultimate goal
of God’s purpose for us and His creation. God’s purpose is
to accomplish our Redemption.
“May blessing be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ Who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual
blessing in the heavenly realm!
Even as He chose us in Christ before the foundation of the
world, that we should be holy and blameless in His sight,
even above reproach, before Him in love.
For He foreordained us to be adopted as His own children
through Jesus Christ, in accordance with the purpose of His
will to the praise and commendation of His glorious grace,
which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.
In Him we have Redemption through His blood, the forgiveness
of our offenses, in accordance with the riches and the generosity
of His gracious favor,
Which He lavished upon us in every kind of wisdom and understanding,
Making known to us the mystery of His will in accordance with His good
pleasure which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him,
He planned for the maturity of the times and climax of the ages to unify
all things and head them up and consummate them in Christ, both things
in heaven and on the earth.
In Him we also were made God’s heritage and we obtained an inheritance;
for we had been chosen and appointed beforehand in accordance with His
purpose, Who works out everything in agreement with the counsel and
design of His will,
So that we who first hoped in Christ (who first put our confidence in Him
have been destined and appointed to live for the praise of His glory!
In Him you also have heard the Word of Truth, the glad tidings (Gospel)
of your salvation, and have believed in and adhered to and relied on Him,
were stamped with the seal of the long-promised Holy Spirit.
The Spirit is the guarantee of our inheritance, in anticipation of its full
redemption and our acquiring complete possession of it- to the praise
of His glory!”
(Ephesians 1.3-14).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
