When God Uses Evil for Good | John 11:45–57

Have you ever wondered how God can work through situations that look completely unfair, painful, or even evil? In John 11:45–57, we witness the turning point after Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. Instead of everyone celebrating the miracle, the religious leaders gathered together and began plotting against Jesus. Their fear, jealousy, and desire to protect their own position led them to make a deadly decision. But what they planned for evil, God was already using for His greater purpose. In this powerful Bible devotional, we explore how the plot against Jesus was never outside God's control. Caiaphas believed he was making a political decision when he said, "It is better that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish." Yet God used his words to reveal the greater truth: Jesus would die not only for Israel, but to bring salvation to all who believe. This message reminds us that God is sovereign even when circumstances seem chaotic. Human plans, opposition, betrayal, and unexpected challenges cannot stop God's purpose. The cross was not an accident; it was part of God's redemptive plan from the beginning. If you are facing opposition, disappointment, or a season where you cannot understand what God is doing, this devotional will encourage you to trust that God is still working behind the scenes.
