I think one of the most important things that we need to realize is that God is god and good means GOOD!
Religion twists the words good and evil all the time. Isaiah 5.20 says “Woe” to people who call good evil and evil good.
A Christian gets sick and people actually waste their time and energy asking why God would do such a thing, or begging God to heal them, or fighting fantasy spiritual battles with demons. God is good.
God has already redeemed that person from all sickness and disease (Isaiah 53.4-6). All we need to do is realize that God is good all the time and all the time God is good.
Are you in need of finances to pay your bills? Get happy – God is good.
Are you in need of healing power? Get happy – God is good.
Have people let you down, hurt you, picked on you? Get happy – God is good.
He is good. He is good. His love endures forever, and He is good.
The Father is good – He sent His Son. The Son is good – He died for our sins, gave up His life as a burnt offering so we could be redeemed.
The Holy Spirit is good. He is the Comforter. He is Love. He is Kind. Some Christians feel like rubbish and they think the Holy Spirit is “convicting them”.
Absolute nonsense – the Holy Spirit is a Comforter, not an accuser. The closer you walk with the Holy Spirit the more comforted, the more holy, the more joyful you will be – not more dejected, more condemned and more defeated!
God is good and good means good.
Blessings,
