Ordained vs Allowed Understanding the Difference Between What God Establishes and What God Permits

Ordained vs Allowed

Understanding the Difference Between What God Establishes and What God Permits

By Beverley Vaughn

Why do some things in life seem to align perfectly with God’s purpose while other situations feel chaotic, painful, or completely outside of what we know God desires?

For many believers, one of the greatest areas of confusion is understanding what God actually ordained versus what God merely allowed.

This powerful teaching breaks through that confusion.

Ordained vs Allowed is a deeply researched, scripture rich study designed to help serious believers, leaders, and thinkers understand the difference between:

• What God intentionally establishes
• What God permits because of human freedom
• What God redeems from broken circumstances

When these distinctions become clear, something profound happens: your discernment sharpens, your faith deepens, and your understanding of God’s ways expands.

Why This Study Matters

Many believers have been taught, directly or indirectly, that everything that happens must be God's will.

But Scripture presents a more nuanced and powerful reality.

The Bible shows that:

• Some things are ordained by God
• Some things are permitted because of human choices
• Some things are redeemed by God’s power

Without understanding these differences, believers can become passive, confused, or discouraged in situations God never intended them to accept.

This study restores biblical clarity and spiritual authority.

What You Will Discover

Inside this comprehensive teaching you will explore:

The Biblical Meaning of Ordination

A deep dive into the Hebrew and Greek words that reveal how God establishes assignments, authority, and purpose.

What God Truly Ordains

What God Permits But Did Not Design

The Power of Redemption

See how God transforms betrayal, failure, suffering, and persecution into instruments of His greater purposes.

The Three Levels of God’s Will

Understand the difference between:

• God’s perfect will

• God’s redemptive will

The Dominion Connection (Genesis 1:28)

Discover why understanding what God ordained is essential for exercising spiritual authority and walking in your assignment.

The Psychology of Belief and Spiritual Authority

Designed for Serious Learners

This study is intentionally written for those who want to go deeper.

It integrates:

• Scripture from Genesis to Revelation
• Hebrew and Greek word studies
• theological insight
• historical context
• practical application
• leadership implications
• spiritual formation

Whether you are a ministry leader, entrepreneur, teacher, or dedicated student of Scripture, this teaching will sharpen your understanding of how God works within human history.

The Result

When you grasp the difference between ordination, permission, and redemption, you begin to see life differently.

You learn to ask better questions:

• Is this something God established?
• Is this something God is temporarily allowing?
• Or is this a situation God is redeeming for a greater purpose?

That clarity produces wisdom.

And wisdom strengthens dominion.

Ordained vs Allowed is more than a theological study.

It is an invitation to see the world through a clearer biblical lens and to walk with deeper understanding of God’s purposes in your life and in history.
