God Is Good!

Psalms_100-5: For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

Psalms 100:5, “For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.”

The person and the works of God are good. He is good in His generosity and kindness to all of creation, in His unconditional love in Christ coming to die for sinners and in His saving and special love to His elect people.

He is good, He is goodness, good in Himself, good in His essence, good in the highest degree. Possessing whatever is calmly, excellent, desirable, the highest good because the first good, whatever is perfect goodness is God.

Whatsoever is truly goodness in any creature is a resemblance of God. All the names of God are comprehended in this one of good. All gifts, all variety of goodness are contained in Him as one common good. He is the efficient cause of all good by an overflowing goodness of His nature. He refers all things to Himself as the end of the representation of His own goodness.

One of my favorite scriptures is James 1:17 where the apostle writes, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” 1 Timothy 4:4, “For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving.”

May His word bring blessing and strength to your life today as you meditate on His goodness!

Thank You Jesus!
