The Lord is good!

 Goodness! Something we all look for. We all are looking for good things for ourselves, regardless on how we define it. The drug dealer is looking for his own good. The thief steals because he thinks it will do him good. The promiscuous girl have sex with different people because she thinks it will do her good. The adulterer cheats because he thinks he will find satisfaction. Some people help others because it bring them satisfaction. Everything everyone of us do in life is in search of satisfaction, in search some perceived good .

We all are in search of goodness in our lives. This life is tough, miserable with rare moments of goodness. Have ever met someone who is pleasant, kind etc..? Man, how much do we want to stay around that person, spend hours with him/her. Being around such a persom evoke all kinds of good feeling from us, make our hearts melt with pleasant feelings and temporarily uplift us from the despair and miseries of this world. Everyone loves to be around such a person and you never want to lose such a one .

God is such a person. The Lord is good! The more my friendship with Jesus grows, the more pleasant He is to me. The Lord is good. I have never met someone as pleasant as God. God never has mood changes. God will never betray you. God never rejects the one who comes to Him. God knows all my flaws and still loves me. God is patient with me. God is tender with me. God has made me strong. When I make mistakes, the Lord still accepts me when I come to Him. Spending time with God daily has made me wiser.


Spending time with God is the sweetest thing in the world . The closer you get to the Lord,  the more you will feel the abiding presence of His Holy Spirit within your own soul, conforting us. The Lord is good! I have never met someone like the Lord before, who truly desires my good and does everything to make my life a blessing. The Lord is good! The Lord is beautiful , lovely. How can anyone not love the Lord is a mystery to me 🤷🏾‍♂️.

The Lord is good, there is no greater love than  God's love, no greater goodness than in the Lord.


We all may think different things will bring goodness to our lives but in truth only a relationship with God will bring true goodness. Many things we thought would bring us goodness end up bringing more misery to our lives. But with the Lord we will experience increasing goodness. Goodness for now and everlasting goodness in the life to come. The Lord is good ! How can i not praise Him, how can I not glory Him and magnify His name upon the earth ? The Lord is good! To know God is to experience goodness and true love.  Seek the Lord, for He is good!

Constantine won the battle and started on the path that led him to become the sole ruler of the Roman empire.

On October 27 with the armies preparing for battle, Constantine claimed to had a vision which led him to fight under the protection of  the Christian God. According to the message of Eusebius of Ceasarea, around noon, Constantine saw a luminous cross in the sky and under it the inscription in Greek," in this sign thou shalt conquer. " Constantine also claimed to had a dream in which Christ commanded him to use the sign of the cross against his enemies. Constantine became the first emperor to convert to Christianity.  He ended the policy of persecuting Christians and in 313...

Second Beast of Revelation Revealed part 1

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. Revelation 13:11 This prophecy speaks about a nation rising at the end of time that will seem to represent Christ but will actually be against Him. In this small study, we will reveal that nation. Below are some symbolic terms in prophecy needed in order to follow this study. Beast : a political entity, a state or empire Earth : symbolizes a place that is not heavily populated, unlike the sea. The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues."  Revelation 17:15 Horns : Horns represent kings and kingdoms, or governments.

The spiritual nature and the degradation of marriage

Man was made in the image of God.  What does it mean to be made in the image of God? What is God like ? The Bible says "God is a Spirit." What comes to mind when you think of a Spirit? You think of something not limited by physical restraints, something unseen, something greater than the physical.  God made man in His image, He made a spiritual being covered by an earthly body. We all have the breath of God within us, we all have a spirit within us. The spirit within is the real person, the character.  With the spiritual nature we relate to God and with the earthly nature we relate to the earth.  So let's break it down a little bit so we can understand . What are the things we find in the spiritual nature ?  In the spiritual nature we find love, patience, longsuffering, mercy etc.. The spiritual nature is all about relationships, that's the most important to the spiritual nature, its highest goal. Why do I say this ? Remember what we said in the beginning, "God ...
