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!

The sanctuary in Heaven

Let them construct a sanctuary for Me, that I may dwell among them. 9 "According to all that I am going to show you, as the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its furniture. Exodus 25:8,9 God told Moses to build him a sanctuary according to the pattern that he sees. Does that mean God created a blue print for him or is it a pattern of something in heaven? Copy of the True Tabernacle The sanctuary that they built in the wilderness is a copy of the one that is in heaven. Yes there is a sanctuary in heaven. So if there is a sanctuary in heaven , does that mean there is a High Priest also? They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: "See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain." Hebrews 8:5

Is the United States a Christian nation?

 Why calling the United states a Christian country is detrimental to Christianity.  The United states was clearly influenced by Christian principles; The pilgrims were escaping persecutions from Europe and while many of them practiced Christianity, they were still suffering persecution in Europe from state churches. The founding fathers, some being Christians, made sure to separate the church from the state. They well knew of the carnage that comes as a result of having a state religion. And so, the US became one of the rare countries without a state religion. Each person was left to follow the dictate of his own conscience.  When you call a country by a specific religion, people associate all of its behaviors with said religion. Note this example: Slavery was an institution in the United states; this would also mean that the brutality of slavery was accepted a Christian precept. Even the mistreatment of the Indians would have been considered a Christian precept. In fact,...

When God calls you. The fiery way to God

 "Why is my life so hard? Why are these things happening to me? I pray to God for healing, but there is no healing. I pray for better finances, but no money is forthcoming. I am so tired of these struggles; I am on the verge of giving up. I might as well live life the way I want to and hope to die soon. Have these thoughts ever come to your mind? These are thoughts many will encounter as they ascend the mountain of God. For many of us, life began well. We had a great time in our youth; we believed in love, we believed the future was bright, and we felt whole as a person. But somewhere along the way, hardship showed up. An illness, a broken heart, the death of a loved one, or broken aspirations sent us into despair and grief. Suddenly, life became dark and hopeless. But then, we heard the voice of God. We heard someone preach, 'Come to Jesus and all will be well; come to Jesus and He will give you the desires of your heart.' So we came to Jesus, hoping that we were back on ...
