Bible text:: psalm 105:1-8
Goodness of God talks about how God has been so good to us in all our endeavor and is an act of giving thanks to God for his blessing. We are to be doing this in order to receive more blessing from him, because he is a perfect God that do his work perfectly, in which if God decided to bless a nation he will surely do it,only if the people of the nation are ready to praise him and he will do it.
A family full of doctors will think, they can stand any health issue no matter how big it was, so they refuse to give thanks to one who give life and when their family begins to die they will continue to put the fault on an unknown diseases but those that return all the glory back to God enjoy his presence and he continue bless the work of their hand.
How can someone acquire the Goodness of God:
BY GIVING THANKS
We are to give thanks to God no matter the situation we found ourselves because this is the only way God can quickly divert his attention to us and listen to our supplication. There is an example in the bible when paul and silas were in the prison, the pray and sang and Holyghost came down and help them out of the prison.
It was also written that I will enter his gate with thanksgiving in my heart and I will enter his court with praise. So giving thanks to God is the highest chance of acquiring the the Goodness of God.MEDITATE IN HIS WORD
Read the word of God at all time and hold God unto his word, e.g psalm 23:1 " The lord is my shepherd, I shall not want" . So you hold God by his because God honour his word than his name.
It is mandatory to know what God has done for us and what is going to do for us through the word of God because the word of God contains the directives and light unto our part.
It is not our money we use to thank God but our heart full of joy showing his goodness with the use of his word and thanksgiving.BY SEEKING THE FACE OF GOD
how can you seek his face?
- through prayer
- through fasting
When you can fast and pray, he will surely show his face to you and he will talk to you, to direct & lead you without failing to the pit of wicked.
- BY DESIRING HIM
We can desire God through our behaviour and this done by how we can improve the work of God. How do we improve the work of God?
We can improve his work through preaching of his gospel by winning souls to his, bringing back the lost sheep and feeding them with the word of God.
So seek his face, give him thanks and meditate his word, then he will answer you.
May the Goodness of God be with you
