Acknowledging God's Goodness......
Acknowledging God’s Goodness!!!!….
Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.
In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.
Be not wise in your own eyes; reverently fear and worship the Lord and turn [entirely] away from evil.--Proverbs 3:5-7 (Amplified Bible)
You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things. Now we know that God's judgment against those who do such things is based on truth. So when you, a mere man, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God's judgment? Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, tolerance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness leads you toward repentance? But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of God's wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed.God "will give to each person according to what he has done."—--Romans 2:1-6
Romans 2:4 says, “Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?” God is RICH in goodness, kindness, and patience. He is so very, very, very generous–even with those who least deserve it. The more we come to know the Lord, the more we recognize His extreme generosity with us in every area of our lives!
You despise His goodness to you by thinking that it’s alright for you to sin and do whatever you want to, just because God is good and kind, and you despise His goodness to you by not minding your own business–when you insist on judging and criticizing others–especially when you are already doing the very same things they are. God does not allow us to judge others ever–it is never acceptable to Him–not under any circumstances. Instead, He tells us over and over to humble ourselves before Him and acknowledge that we cannot do anything without His help.
For it is written in Proverbs 16:1-3
To man belong the plans of the heart,
but from the LORD comes the reply of the tongue.
All a man's ways seem innocent to him,
but motives are weighed by the LORD.
Commit to the LORD whatever you do,
and your plans will succeed.
Yes, God is good—in earth and sky,
From ocean depths and spreading wood,
Ten thousand voices seem to cry:
God made us all, and God is good.
Yes, God is good, all nature says,
By God’s own hand with speech endued;
And man, in louder notes of praise,
Should sing for joy that God is good.
For all Thy gifts we bless Thee, Lord,
But chiefly for our heavenly food;
Thy pardoning grace, Thy quickening word,
These prompt our song, that God is good.
To God Be All The Glory.... Amen.....
