THE LORD IS GOOD

“The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.”
Nahum 1:7(KJV)
Main Text:

It must be settled in your spirit that God is Good! Exodus 34:6. There are many times we face challenges that might make us question God’s goodness, we might think if God is good, why am I in trouble? Why does it look like there’s a stumbling block at every direction? Why am I going through this or that? However, the constant fact still remains, God is Good! We must realize, Job 34:10Far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.” (KJV)

Picture this, if you met an individual who was hungry and came to you for food, if you were worse than the person you wouldn’t be able to help him, however, because you don’t have any trouble you chose to help him out of his predicament, in the same vein it is so with God.

Life will throw many challenges our way, but we have a strong refuge to hold unto and His name is God. The Bible says, the Lord is good! He is willing to help us out of every situation, if we would trust in Him. Faith is key in enjoying God’s goodness, read Proverbs 18:10

What could ever make us imagine that God isn’t as good as He claims to be? See Nahum 1:9

As believers, what do we imagine about the Lord, what is the thought in your heart? When you’re in trouble, do you still remember that God is good? When things don’t go your way, is God still good? Do you change your opinion and think God isn’t good? God is good all the time.

Confession: I boldly declare, I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, therefore, I enjoy of God’s goodness, I experience tender love and favor with both men and God. I am fruitful, I am abounding in the Lord, glory to God, I am blessed!
