"God is good all the time."
Yes—not sometimes. Not when circumstances are easy. Not when life makes sense. All the time.
The Scripture That Confirms This:
Psalm 100:5 (AMP) : "For the Lord is good; His mercy and lovingkindness are everlasting, His faithfulness [endures] to all generations."
Psalm 34:8 (AMP) : "O taste and see that the Lord [our God] is good; How blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who takes refuge in Him."
Nahum 1:7 (AMP) : "The Lord is good, a strength and stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows [He recognizes, cares for, and understands fully] those who take refuge and trust in Him."
Lamentations 3:22-23 (AMP) : "It is because of the Lord’s lovingkindnesses that we are not consumed, because His [tender] compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great and beyond measure is Your faithfulness."
A Response of Trust:
"God is good—
not only when I receive, but when I surrender.
Not only when I am blessed, but when I am broken.
Not only when I understand, but when I am confused.
He is good in the morning and in the night.
Good in the harvest and in the drought.
Good in my strength and in my weakness.
I will not measure His goodness by my circumstances.
I will measure my circumstances by His goodness.
For He is good—
all the time.
And all the time—
He is good."
The Promise for You:
His goodness is not dependent on your feelings, your performance, or your situation. It is woven into His very nature. He is good because He cannot be anything else.
God is good all the time. That is not a wish—it is a rock-solid truth you can stand on. Rest in that goodness today. It will not fail you.
