Believe To See His Goodness

Author: Jerry Savelle

No matter how you feel or what your emotions are telling you, God has a great future for you if you will just trust Him. Not only has He got a great future for you, but He has a plan to get you there too!

Believing that you will see the manifestation of the goodness of the Lord is essential to staying strong in faith and walking into that bright future that He has prepared for you.

David wrote in Psalm 27:13-14 (NKJV), “I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait on the Lord;
be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord!”

What you believe determines how strong or how faint you become. If you allow discouragement and hopelessness to grip you, you will start to grow weak and faint. Believing in the goodness of the Lord will increase your strength.

Don’t let negative situations consume your vision. If that is all you see, you will forget the goodness of God and plunge into a pit of despair. Never lose sight of His goodness. God is a good God and He has good plans for you.

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV).

Confession: I believe that I will see the goodness of the Lord manifest in my life. I put my hope in Him and trust in His love and faithfulness to me. Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life.
