The Road to Redemption: Lessons from John 12 - Part V: Divine Purpose and Timing
In the final part of our series, The Road to Redemption: Lessons from John 12, we explore the profound theme of divine timing and purpose. Jesus' declaration in John 12:23, "The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified," signifies the fulfillment of God's perfect plan for Jesus' death and glorification. This lesson reminds us to trust in God's timing and to believe that He has a set purpose for every season of our lives. As we reflect on key Scriptures like Ecclesiastes 3:1 and Galatians 4:4-5, we’re reminded that God's plan unfolds at the right moment, even when we cannot see the bigger picture.
In this week’s episode, we delve into how embracing God's timing allows us to find purpose even in pain, just as Jesus did. In John 12:27, Jesus submits to His Father’s plan, understanding that His suffering leads to greater glory. We’re encouraged to trust in God’s sovereignty and submit our plans to His control, knowing that He works everything for good, as promised in Romans 8:28 and Jeremiah 29:11. By following Jesus’ example of obedience and trust in God's purpose, we can walk confidently in His plan, living victoriously and embracing the fullness of His blessings.
