Every Good Thing


Author: Jerry Savelle

 

Good things come to those who are mindful of Jesus and all that He accomplished for them on the Cross.

“No good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly” (Psalm 84:11).

Many people automatically think, “But I’m not upright, I did that same old sin again! I can’t stand on this verse because I know I’m not upright.”

Others think, “I faithfully attend church, tithe, pray an hour a day, confess the Word and never watch R-rated movies. Compared to others, I am walking uprightly before God.”

Both of these attitudes are completely wrong. Both focus on you and not Jesus.

The Bible tells us in Hebrews 10:38 that the just shall live by faith. Live by faith in what? Faith in Jesus and all that He did for you on the Cross. Faith in what God says in His Word.

If you have confessed with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you now stand upright, holy and blameless before God.

Therefore, every child of God can stand on the Word and believe that He will not withhold any good thing from them.

Confession: Thank You, Father, for not withholding any good thing from me as I walk uprightly in your sight.
