GOD IS GOOD

“And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.”
Luke 18:19 (KJV)
Main Text: Main text: Job 34:10

God’s goodness shows up in our lives every single day. Although we often think of his goodness when something big happens, his goodness abounds all the time--in every hour, minute, and second of the day, in the smallest of things around us. Every day that God wakes us up is an example of his goodness. This means we are still working towards the purpose and gifts he has given us. It shows us that he isn’t finished with us yet and that we still have a mission to fulfill.

Nothing created by God had in it the trace of sour taste. He called everything good because they emanated from Him. Gen 1:31 “And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good…” After God created something and “it was good,” which means it was perfect. God’s character is known to us. If we believe in Christ for salvation, then we have to trust in the good which will emerge: That we will have eternal life with God.

In God’s goodness, He saw the need for man’s restoration and sent Jesus to die for our sin, if we are willing to accept this “good” act from God, eternal salvation will belong to us! God is good! He’s good all the time, He has your best interest in His heart!

Confession:

I enjoy the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living, I walk in the blessings of Abraham, I am blessed beyond measure and I enjoy absolute direction from the Holy Spirit. In Jesus name, Amen!
