All of creation under judgment from the rebellion of Satan, extended to man, had been subjected to bondage (Ezekiel 28:18 (TLB); Genesis 3:18,19)
- Defiled by the multitude of Satan’s iniquities
- The iniquity of trafficking
The same attributes have manifest in the acts of man who in the multitude of trafficking for economic gain, have progressively destroyed their environment through indiscriminate pollution of the atmosphere, triggering ecological imbalance and climate change.
As God brought redemption to man so indeed has He to all of creation! As the redeemed of the Lord is waiting for the fullness of redemption, so is all creation waiting in hope, that as soon as the sons of God are manifest, so will all creation be freed. This is the blessed hope (vs 23-25) for which we exercise patience and endurance.
In your endurance and extenuating circumstances, understand that you are where you are for a reason and for a season! There are certain qualities you need to take with you from the present position to the next one. You may need to know how to manage your mood, plus patience and gratitude.
When you are led by God, no experience is ever wasted because all things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them.
We must learn to depend upon the Holy Spirit in prayers, being assured that everything will eventually work out for our good.
If our goal is God, then Colossians 3:1-3 must be our individual mantra.
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. Colossians 3:1-3
The world may moan but you know the outcome for you is good. God ordained it so. Shalom.
