A Summer Book Series: Ultimate Intention - Chapter 16

Chapter 16 is a practical and piercing look at discerning the source of difficulties as we walk the highway of God’s ultimate intention. Many believers begin the journey but become bewildered, defeated, or sidetracked—often because they can’t distinguish between God’s chastisement, the natural law of reaping, satanic oppression or hindrance, and the voluntary choice of cross-bearing. The cross is not every trial, disease, or loss we encounter. It is a chosen way of life, embraced for Christ’s sake in fulfilling the specific calling for which He has apprehended us. This chapter emphasizes careful discernment: knowing what to endure with patience, what to resist, and what to repent of. When we wholly submit to the Lord, we can trust that nothing reaches us without His permission. Every test—whether circumstantial or purely spiritual—becomes an opportunity to emerge strengthened, approved, and more deeply united with Him. Here we go! Thanks for Listening!
