Greatest Goodness!

B. A. Manakala



Surely Your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever. Ps 23:6

We are very glad to hear that God's goodness follow us all the days of our life. But what are the kind of 'goodnesses' we expect from God? We are often narrow-minded and desire for physical and temporary goodness.

Rom 8:28 says "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God …." When we love God He converts even the 'bad things' that happen in our lives to goodness.

The greatest goodness is that we become like His Son (Rom 8:29) and live in the house of the Lord forever (Ps. 23:6b).

Prayer:
Lord, I thank you for your goodness follow me all the days of my life. Help me to see the goodness in everything that happens in my life Amen

God doesn’t exist!?

B. A. Manakala Only fools say in their hearts, “ There is no God. ” …  Ps 53:1 Wind blows where it wishes; you cannot see it though you may hear it (Jn. 3:8). Am I a fool, if I asked ‘ Where is God? ’ and ‘ Does He exist?, ’ during tough times in life? Isn ’ t it natural for any of us to ask similar questions? Was Father God hurt when Jesus asked, ‘ My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? ’ (Ps. 22:1) We are limited in understanding the depths of God (Job 11:7; 36:26; Ps. 145:3). My knowledge about God is just enough for me to say, ‘ I do not know God ’ ! The whole creation, proclaims that God exists (Rom. 1: 20) God neither gets offended because you think He doesn ’ t exist, nor cease to exist because you think so! Prayer: Lord, open my heart, eyes or whatever, that would help me see and understand you. Amen

What is your good name?

B. A. Manakala I will praise you forever, O God, for what you have done. I will trust in your good name in the presence of your faithful people. Ps 52:9 Some people are very keen on introducing themselves only with their surname, about which they might be very proud. Here is a name that is above all other names! One day at this name every knee will bow (Phil. 2:9-10)! I have been crucified and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me (Gal. 2:20). Let him and his name increase and let me and my name decrease (Jn 3:30). Rejoice that your name is written in heaven (Lk.10:20) and one day you will be given a new name (Rev. 2:17). Earthly names are temporary; gain a heavenly name. Prayer: Lord, help me gain heavenly name than earthly fame. Amen
