Where is God when bad things happen and why do they happen? How should the Christian respond when the devil comes accusingly and harasses them? In this sermon on Roman 8:28-30, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones pastors the listener through a myriad of troubles, explaining why they occur, how God uses them in the lives of His children, and how they can know that all things truly are working together for their good. Sometimes a Christian doesn’t know what to pray for in those situations but, as Dr. Lloyd-Jones reminds, “the Christian is one who can be certain about the ultimate even when he is most uncertain about the immediate.” Listen to this sermon “God is in control”, as he declares promise after promise from God’s word and cites examples from church history which will encourage the soul to trust God in the midst of dark times. Because God is in control, the Christian can be assured that even though they may not understand, they can still walk confidently, trusting that He is working all things for their good.
Wow! Thank you Lord!
Thank you so much for making these sermons available online. I very much identify with what he is preaching here. I remember going to his church a long time ago and hearing him preach. At least I think I do. I know at that time I was not a follower of Jesus Christ because I had not surrendered my life into his hands. It has been a long journey during which I made a commitment to him but still did not surrender totally as I did last November at the age of 75. Before this I could never say, as I do now, I am crucified with Christ and my life is hidden with him and I look forward to being with him in heaven. In the meantime I am the empty vessel through which the Holy Spirit works his purposes out in my life and the lives of those who know and those who don't yet know him as Saviour and Lord. To him be due the glory and honour to the name which is above every other name - the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to the praise and glory of our Heavenly Father.
Amen
Wow great stuff.
Lord, thank you for Martynn Lloyd Jones and his ministry. I pray that this sermon will bless my Goddaughter, Krystal who is going through a very difficult trial.
Strengthen her oh Lord and open her eyes to be able to count even this trial, all joy. And to know that you have her in the palms of your most loving and gracious hands. Take all fear and anxiety from her heart and fill it with your peace and understanding.
Oh, Lord how wonderful you are. You've seen me through many trials. You are my strength and my salvation and my joy.
All Glory and Honor is yours. Amen
Praise God!
Exceptionally good sermon.
This directed to agape777: the name of the next sermon after this one (God in Control) is Loving God: The Test. I hope if you haven’t found it you will be directed to you comment and find this.
What is the second part of this called? The one he said he was going to do the following week? Would really like to know if you could let me know! Thanks.
