The message I have for you today is titled,

What's God doing?

If you brought your Bibles turned to Psalm 33

and revelation chapter.

While you're turning there, let me just say that this question,

what's God doing is one of the most common questions,

or at least the subject matter of that question, is one of the most common things that I deal with as a pastor.

Part of my function, pastorally, is to help people figure out what's God doing?

And I would venture to say that every one of us in the room today

have one or more areas of our life where there's situations or circumstances we're dealing

with and we're asking the question, what is God doing in this situation?

Sometimes we ask it out of frustration.

Sometimes we ask it out of curiosity. But almost every time that I've been

asked the question, help me figure out what God is doing, it's asked out of sincerity by people

really wanting to know what is God doing in the situation of my life.

So Psalm 33, if you're there, let's read in verse 13, the Lord looks from heaven, he sees all the sons of men, from the place of his

dwelling he looks on all the inhabitants of the earth, he fashions their hearts individually, he considers all their works.

Now just a reminder as we approach this subject today that you're not a number, a statistic, something that God does in a generic way, but he knows every person

individually and one of the things that he's doing in the circumstances of our life is he's

fashioning his nature and character in us individually.

That means he's working individually in the situations of your life and my life.

Now that ought to be good news.
