Other manuscripts show this verse as reading, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God…” and “Things work together with those who love Him to bring about what is good…” Only God can work good out of evil…for only God’s sovereign overruling of wicked human work can accomplish His Divine & Ultimate purpose. In Genesis 50:20, we see the evil the brothers of Joseph attempted to do God turned around to save not only them but many more during the great famine. “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.” So when hard things come into our lives we need to remember that the purpose of God guarantees “good” for His people – God’s providence rules in such a way as to ensure that everything that happens to us is working for our ultimate good & His glory.
