God Turns Things Right-Side UP!

GOD TURNS THINGS RIGHT-SIDE-UP!

"...you turn things upside down!" (Ps 146:9, Is 24:1, Is 29:16)

On three different occasions, God says, "you turn things upside down!" (Ps 146:9, Is 24:1, Is 29:16).

He means, of course, that man takes Goodness from God and twists, perverts, corrupts, and turns it into something NOT from God, but Satan.

But God does exactly the opposite in return. He takes the lies, deceit, and evil intentions of man (the thoughts of man's wretched heart are the "spawn" of darkness), and turns them into good (as He intended originally).

You'll recall what Joseph said to his brothers, "But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good..."-Gn 50:20. God turned his brother's evil intentions right-side up! But there's far more.

Consider God's Character-Provisions for man (those Divine attributes of God He shares with man); Grace favors the unworthy; Faith is given to those in darkness; Eyes to the blind, Ears to the deaf; Patience favors the obstinate; Mercy is given the miserable; Pity favors the poor; even as God has promised Honor to the humble; as the last shall be First, and the first shall be Last; and so, on & on it goes.

Jesus Himself Declares that God's Law of sowing & reaping is not only absolute, and subject NOT to the ways of the "world" (physics as we know it), but serves God Almighty and HIS INTENTIONS!

Therefore, anytime we are "out of God's perfect Will-for-us", we can expect God will "turn things upside down" in the midst of our circumstances.

Any sinner who doesn't want God to "turn the tables" on him may get his wish!

The greatest act of "tables-turning" ever, was the Cross. Man wanted God's (innocent) Blood for evil intentions - BUT GOD had Good intentions for a mankind - so riddled with guilt only God Himself could "turn things right-side up"!

Love for hate, Forgiveness for condemnation. Good swap, huh? How Good is God? More than Good enough for all our "bad"!
