GOD WILL ALWAYS DO YOU GOOD

“For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed, but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.” Isaiah 54:10 (KJV)
One thing that we must be confident in as children of God, especially in these last days, is that we are partakers of a divine order enacted upon the precious blood of the only begotten Son of God, Jesus Christ. An order wherein the enemy cannot level any accusations against us because our High Priest constantly makes intercession for us. Therefore, on the strength of this covenant in His blood, God is obligated to take care of you. He takes your case personally and ensures that you are victorious, irrespective of what your challenges are. In fact, according to His word, He has already perfected all that concerns you. Not some, not few, but all! Do you know why? It is because God is your Father!
Apostle Paul highlighted this in his epistle to the Romans in Romans 8:15: “For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.” (KJV). This Scripture describes the relationship you now have with God because of Jesus. Your relationship is no longer a distant one; it is now intimate. You must never forget this. He is your Father, and He has accepted you in His beloved.
Rather than speak the wrong words when faced with a challenge, speak the words of your Father. Your Father is favourably disposed to dispense only good to you, and you must leverage on this relationship. He loves you with an everlasting love and has inscribed you upon the palm of His hands, where no evil can touch you. Therefore, evil shall continually evil bow before you. The wicked shall bow at your gate. God will fight your battles. He will shut the mouth of the enemy and silence the voice of the wicked. The glory of God shall be seen upon you.
