Most of what we need to know about God we already know, we just have to remember it.
God is great, God is good.
Psalm 62:11-12
“One thing God has spoken, two things have I heard. That you o God are strong and that you o Lord are loving.”
If God only had all the power but bad intentions, we should be terrified of Him.
If God is great, but not good, we should fear for our lives.
God is not only powerful, He has great intentions.
Our God is so great that when Moses asked Him in Exodus 14, what should I call you, he said “I am who I am” or “I am that I am” or “Whatever you need, that’s what I am”
God is….whatever you need Him to be!
He is a provider, rescuer, healer, and guider.
Some of the things that freak us out cause us to doubt our God
How big is your problem compared to how big your God is?
Our God is a great big God!
Eph. 3:20
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us”
God has been really good to us.
Sometimes our present struggles seem to overwhelm our perspective of God’s past faithfulness.
God has been good to you. You are alive and breathing
Lamentations 3:21-23
21 Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:
22 Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
23 They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
God has good intentions toward His children.
Our God is so good, He wants better for us than we want for ourselves.
God doesn’t take things away from us, He is making room for bigger and better things for us.
God saved us, forgave us of our sins…..God has been good to us.
The Cross settled his goodness once and for all!
Thank God for his goodness in the middle of our struggles.
When waves of doubt swell up in us, we need to go back and rehearse the past faithfulness of God so we will have complete confidence in His future ability.
God has been with us in the past and He will be in the future.
