God Is A Good God!

If anyone attacks you, don't for a moment suppose that I sent them, and if any should attack, nothing will come of it. - Isaiah 54:15

Have you ever had something bad happen to you, but then it worked out for the better in the end? We all have. God has promised that He will always work things to the good when bad things happen. He will restore double for what the enemy has stolen. If anyone attacks or comes against you, nothing will come of it. So, if God is the one who is working things to the good, the one doing the restoring and causing nothing to come of an attack against you, then who is causing all this to happen in the first place? Once again, we go back to John 10:10 - Jesus said it's the thief who comes to steal, kill and destroy. In other words, it's the devil. It is the goodness of God that causes people to turn their lives around and follow Him. There is no such thing as a "blessing in disguise." Do we really believe that God is so conniving, sneaky and full of trickery that He would disguise a blessing that He has already spelled out for us in black and white in His word? NO! He did promise though, that when the enemy comes against us, He will always provide a way of escape; He will always turn it around and make something good of it; He will always give us double for our trouble, or just simply erase it. If there is a lesson to be learned from it, it is this: God is a good god! He's good all the time, and He doesn't have to break your leg, run you over in the street or steal your truck to prove it!

Have A Blessed Day
