- COINCIDENCE - Is there such a thing as coincidence? Was it a coincidence that Jesus came upon the woman at the well? The Bible says God actively works within our circumstances. Why would God not be involved in your circumstances?

Is There Such a Thing As Coincidence?

“Jesus, worn out by the trip, sat down at the well. It was noon. A woman, a Samaritan, came to draw water. Jesus said, ‘Would you give me a drink of water?’” (John 4:6-7 MSG)
Is there such a thing as coincidence?
In Kingdom reality, there simply cannot be. Random does not happen in God’s Kingdom.
Oswald Chambers says God is the Great Engineer, creating circumstances to bring about moments in our lives of divine importance, leading us to divine appointments.
Was it a coincidence that Jesus came upon the woman at the well? Was she just a random woman who walked into a discussion of God’s grace and omnipotence and then told a whole village about God’s forgiveness?
Would God have left that all to chance?
Would he do any less in the details of your life?
The Bible says God actively works within our circumstances. And so we cannot judge our situation apart from God’s wisdom.
In other words, we must leave it up to God to interpret our circumstances. Only he is capable of understanding all the facts, and only he sees the significance of every detail.
This is a critical question to answer in your life: Is God active in your current circumstances or not?
Talk About It
Why would God not be involved in your circumstances?
If you believed God had your best interest at heart, how would you view your current circumstances differently?
Would you want to have a deeper relationship with God?
God has made it possible for you to know Him and experience an amazing change in your own life by receiving His Son, Jesus Christ, and have eternal life.
Say the following prayer:

“Father God, I confess I am a sinner and my sins have separated me from You.

I am truly sorry. I now want to turn away from my past sinful life and live a new life pleasing to You.

Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again.

I believe that Your Son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer.

I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Thank You that according to your Word, I am now born again.

Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. I promise to study Your Word – the Bible.

Please use me for Your glory.

In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen.”

lyrics    
1
Like the woman at the well, I was seeking
For things that could not satisfy.
And then I heard my Savior speaking—
“Draw from My well that never shall run dry.”
Fill my cup, Lord;
I lift it up Lord;
Come and quench this thirsting of my soul.
Bread of Heaven, feed me till I want no more.
Fill my cup, fill it up and make me whole.

There are millions in this world who are seeking
For pleasures earthly goods afford.
But none can match the wondrous treasure
That I find in Jesus Christ my Lord.
3
So my brother if the things that this world gives you
Leave hungers that won’t pass away,
My blessed Lord will come and save you
If you kneel to Him and humbly pray—
Jon Walker writes about how God can work through the worst of circumstances in his breakout book, “Breakfast with Bonhoeffer.” “Gut-wrenching honesty, real world faith, not just another 'feel good' Christian story.”
