What is the 'ALL THINGS' work together of our good in Rom.8:28?

Rom 8:28  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

This verse has been abused by prosperity teachers who pull this verse out of its true context and use it falsely and according to their own vain imaginations. There is so much more to this verse than putting people under the hope that the "all things" represents the tomorrow, when all things are supposed to suddenly work out better based on today's problems and challenges. This verse is not about tomorrow, or today, or even in our lifetime. This verse spans the ALL THINGS from when we were called in Christ before the world began, up until the hope of the measure of the glory of Christ we will have in the ages to come. God is working out all things, things in His intricate plan, across this great span of time, together for the good of the Body of Christ when it is in its glorified state in the coming age.

Let's take a closer look at what this verse truly means.

Before Genesis 1:1, there was a wisdom ordained by God unto our glory out in our future. God ordained wisdom before the world unto our glory. You know what that means? God has been working all things together for our good since before the world began.

As believers today, our walk is by faith, not by the physical senses

As believers today, our walk is by faith, not by the physical senses

Faith is the route by which all spiritual blessings come into our lives. God has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Paul writes, “Col 3:1  If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.” We must understand that we can't see them with our physical eyes, we can't hear them with our physical ears, and we can't seek them with our natural senses.

So, how do we seek things that we can't sense with the natural man? How do we see those things and take hold of those things? It’s by the Word of God. We see them, and obtain them, through faith.

In Romans 5:5 Paul says, “And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.” How does the Holy Ghost shed God's love abroad in our hearts? Is it a feeling? Do we just close our eyes and see if we can feel that love being shed abroad in our hearts?
