The goodness of the Lord!! [ September 8, 2024 ]
The goodness of the Lord!!
Psalm 23:6
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
“The goodness of the Lord” in this context refers to the kindness, compassion and unconditional love of God.
In the verse above, the Psalmist says, he is certain of the availability of God’s kindness, compassion and unconditional love throughout his life.
Why? Because God is faithful. This is confirmed in Lamentations 3:22-23
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never will come to an end. They are new every morning, Great is thy faithfulness
God is faithful and true at all times
James 1:12
Every good and perfect gift from God the Father of….
This verse from the new testament re- affirms the fact that God’ s love is unconditional, He gives good and perfect gifts to all His children.
Whether, they are believers or unbelievers. He loves us all. But He prefers that we all accept the gift of salvation.
Therefore, He has made the requirements for being born again very simple. Ephesians 2:8 says salvation is a gift from God. It is free , whether you are the worst sinner or a saint.
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Trust in God and do what is right
Song for meditation
Let this song be your confession and prayer
I love your voice
You have led me through the fire
In darkest night
You were close like no other
I’ve known you as a Father
And I ‘ve known as a friend
And I have lived in the goodness of the Lord
All my life you have been faithful
All my life you have been so good
With every breath that I am able
I will sing of the goodness of the Lord
Your goodness is running after
Its running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give you everything
Your goodness is running, is running after me
Chorus in French
Tous de ma vie
Vous avez fidele
Tous de ma vie
Vous avez gentil
Et je veux chanter de votre compassion toujours
Amen
