Every sin, failure and evil will be healed, redeemed and used by God for Good.

“I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel." Philippians 1:12

Reflect

Paul believes that every evil committed against him has and will be used by God to further God's good Kingdom on earth.

Israel always believed that God would ultimately punish all evil and vindicate Himself and them before all enemies. This is why Judgment is part of the Good News. Judgment means that the world will be set to rights. Evil will be destroyed. We look forward to judgment, not in fear, not vengefully, rather as what ultimately sets everything wrong right side up.

If you choose to believe, actually believe, that whatever has gone wrong in your life will be right and justice will prevail then you must act out that belief by verbalizing this to others in such a way that your confidence in God shines through. It's important for this verse to amount to more than "lip service" in life.
