The Lord is Good

Nah. 1:7

"The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows those who take refuge in Him."

What a picture of judgment! "The Lord is a jealous and avenging God; The Lord is avenging and wrathful; The Lord takes vengeance on His adversaries and keeps wrath for His enemies." Then following that "The Lord is slow to anger and great in power..." God is not capricious. He is slow to anger and great in power. But when His cup is full, His judgment pours forth. "His way is in the whirlwind and storm...He rebukes the sea and makes it dry...The mountains quake before Him; the hills melt...Who can stand before His judgment?" No one!! But for those who acknowledge His greatness and come to Him in humility, seeking His face, He is good, a stronghold in trouble. Not only that but this God of such greatness knows individually each one who takes refuge in Him. Truly, the Lord is good!

Father,

Thank you for such goodness and for personally knowing me. You are a great and gracious God!

In Jesus name,

Amen
