I love you Lord, for your mercy never fails me. All my days, I’ve been held in your hands. From the moment that I wake up, until I lay my head, oh I will sing of the goodness of God.
It has been a very difficult year thus far for me, in many aspects of my life. I was talking to a friend of mine the other day and he responded to me with this, “BUT GOD”. In other-words the goodness of God will see you through. Psalm 145:9, “The Lord is good to all: and His tender mercies are over all His works.” Thank you Lord for your goodness.
What is the goodness of God?
God the creator is sovereign, He’s deity, He’s unchangeable, God is Love, God is compassionate and patient. Zephaniah 3:17, “The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing.” God is good all the time and all the time God is good. Hallelujah!
Hence the goodness of God speaks of God’s perfect character, which is exercised towards His creation, according to their various circumstances and needs. It is His true benevolence displayed through His mercy, grace, compassion and favor. God is not sometimes merciful or sometimes just, He is infinitely and incomprehensibly good. God’s goodness is evident is His giving and His forgiving.
Psalm 34:8, “O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.”
God bless.
