Good God: Seeing God's Goodness in the Midst of Hard Times

DAY 3 OF 3

DAY THREE- HE IS FAITHFUL

“It’s gonna be a good day, Cause I got a good God”

- lyrics from "Good God" by Cade Thompson

This world is changing day by day, people change, the seasons change, trends change, algorithms change but our God does not. He remains faithful, He remains constant. The only way to stay grounded and to see the goodness in every day in a world that is changing is to walk in relationship with our faithful God.

Over and over again in the Bible we see stories of God and his faithfulness, from Noah’s ark to Moses and the Red Sea, to Jesus feeding the five thousand to cross and resurrection. As humans we so easily forget the power of our God. We so easily forget the miracles that he has done and that his Word promises that He will continue to do.

Over the past year my faith has been stretched in ways like never before. I got into the music industry at a fairly young age, 15 years old. I didn’t know what was up ahead, I was just trying to stay faithful to the next step that God wanted me to take in front of me. There were so many moments that I wish would have turned out a certain way that led to a close door, or many in multiple cases. But I found that God’s protection by saying no to one opportunity was preparing the way for an open door somewhere else and ultimately for Gods plan to be in action.

I once got asked this question, “Is following Jesus easy?” My reply was no, it is not easy, but it is always worth it. So what will you do when life get’s hard… will you shrink back in fear and forget the power of who God is or will you walk forward in faith and know that you have a good God. His plans might look different than yours, but his ways are higher and better, and greater than anything we could ever imagine.

I pray that through this devotional over the past few days you have been able to hit the reset button on your life, and to truly be reminded of the character of who God is and how that applies to your life.

MY CHALLENGE FOR YOU

My challenge for you today is to write on a notecard these words… GOOD GOD.

Place it somewhere that you can look at everyday, so when the storms of life come you can still be reminded that His promises are true and they remain constant throughout the storms of life. Let's pray...

PRAYER: “Dear God, thank you that you are faithful. Thank you that you never give up on me, no matter what comes my way. I thank you that you are doing a new thing in my life even today, and I pray that I will never forget the goodness of who you are. Remind me of your goodness when I forget. Thank you for being Good God, in Jesus name, AMEN”
