Give Thanks to the Lord, For He Is Good - Reflecting on Psalm 107:1 (6.14.18)

Faith Believers,
The goodness of GOD does not ignore trouble and problems in life.  GOD's goodness brings victory and peace to our lives in the midst of trouble.

It is written in Psalm 107:1 - Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good.  Throughout the psalm, the psalmist speaks of the problems and difficulties in life. Then he tells of how good GOD is, in the midst of those difficulties. We can never fully appreciate the nature and attributes of the Father until we rest in the assurance that He is perfect in His goodness. GOD is so good!

Even when bad things touch our lives,
     we only have to look to the Father.
He is good.

He can even cause bad things to work together for good to those who love Him. When the Father touches the bad situations of our lives, He supernaturally causes good to come forth from those situations. He is a good Father.

The enemy will accuse GOD at this point. the enemy will come to us and show us the evil in the world. the enemy vividly describes the atrocities throughout history. And then the enemy says that GOD is the cause and source of evil. The moment that we begin to entertain that thought, we lose power in prayer.

The Father longs to express His Goodness to His Children. If we are to be powerful in prayer, we must have a clear view of His goodness.

~ Prayer ~
Good and Perfect GOD,
You work all things for my own good.
You have a future and hope for me.

Protect me from the doubt and discouragement
     that the enemy tries to place into my mind.

I want the joy and peace You long to give me.
You are a good Father, and my heart will stand
     firm upon that truth!

In Your Son Jesus' Name,

Amen
