Assurance of God’s goodness

Hello friend! 
Happy new month of August! What do you do when you are weighed down and don’t know what next steps to take in life? How do you cope in trying times when you’re struggling to live in faith? 

There’s so much reassurance in God’s word to carry us through any situation of life. We have to continuously affirm God’s word and believe there’s nothing impossible for him to do.

In today’s publication, we see inspiring scriptures that remind us about the goodness of God.
  • “For the Lord is good. His unfailing love continues forever, and his faithfulness continues to each generation.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭100‬:‭5‬ 
  •  “For the Lord God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭84‬:‭11‬ 
  • “You forgave the guilt of your people— yes, you covered all their sins. Interlude” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭85‬:‭2‬ 
  •  “Yes, the Lord pours down his blessings. Our land will yield its bountiful harvest.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭85‬:‭12‬ 
  •  “O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive, so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭86‬:‭5‬
  • “For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91‬:‭3‬
  •  “The Lord will not reject his people; he will not abandon his special possession.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭94‬:‭14‬ 
  •  “For he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭107‬:‭9‬ 
  •  “He lifts the poor from the dust and the needy from the garbage dump. He sets them among princes, even the princes of his own people! He gives the childless woman a family, making her a happy mother. Praise the Lord!” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭113‬:‭7‬-‭9

Prayer

Dear God, please help me to always trust in your goodness and faithfulness no matter what comes my way.

What type of Christian are you?

Sister Rose was stopped at the gate of heaven, and confusion filled her face. “What is going on here?” she asked. “My name is Sister Rose Agatha, the General Choir Director of the Association of Christian Choristers in my country. What do you mean I’m not qualified to enter?” The angel looked at her calmly. “I’m sorry, ma, but the gate has been shut against you. Many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 22:14). She felt offended. “Sir, with all due respect, you must be mistaking me for someone else. I served God all the years of my life on earth. Do you know how many choir groups I headed? How many crusades I was invited to? I was very popular.” “The Kingdom of God is not about popularity,” the angel replied. “What quality of service did you render to God? Was it for His glory or to please men? Remember, ‘For we must all stand before Christ to be judged… each of us will receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body’” (2 Corinthians 5:10). “An...

Drifting Away (Part 1)

Chidi was known as a devoted brother—quiet, disciplined, and deeply committed to God. He was one of those people whose life seemed to reflect his faith effortlessly. In his church, he served faithfully in the choir, never missing rehearsals, always present, always focused. People admired him, not just for his voice, but for his consistency. Outside church, Chidi worked as an operations assistant in a fast-growing fintech firm. He was diligent, respectful, and serious about his job. His life seemed steady—until things began to change. One morning, news spread across the office that their boss had resigned. A new manager was appointed—a confident, well-spoken woman. She was married, but from the moment she met Chidi, something about him caught her attention. At first, it was subtle. “Chidi, can you stay back for a few minutes after work? I’d like to go over something with you,” she said one evening. Chidi nodded politely. “Yes ma.” But the “work discussions” soon ...

The beauty of God’s mercy

  God’s mercy is  one of the most beautiful expressions of His love toward us. It is constant, undeserved, and always available—no matter our past or present. The Bible reminds us that “The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning” (Lamentations 3:22–23 NLT). Every new day is proof that God has not given up on us. His mercy is not limited or conditional. “The Lord is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love” (Psalm 103:8 NLT). Even when we fall short, He responds with patience and kindness rather than judgment. God’s mercy reaches into every area of our lives. “Let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most” (Hebrews 4:16 NLT). In our moments of weakness, confusion, or need, His mercy is always within reach. It is also through His mercy that we are saved and sust...
