You will not see goodness when it comes, you won't because your eyes are on the trauma.” Hear more about Susie's battle against life's curveballs when you tune in to the full episode. You can also check out Susie's first episode with us as a guest in Season 3 Episode 2.[19:01] The Recipe for VitalitySusie emphasizes that she has gained more in Christ and highlights the importance of thinking rightly about God to receive His blessings.Living in self-preservation prevents us from experiencing God's miracles and goodness; we must work on our hearts to receive His answers.Deep rest in purposeful faith is vital for soul replenishment and engaging in our faith restores peace.[26:53] Learning From The Past's MistakesScripture invites us to remember God's work and trust Him with our lives, avoiding self-preservation despite fears.Recognizing God's daily mercies and expressing perpetual awe for His kindness can strengthen and restore our souls. [30:44] Susie: “His mercy is what covers us time and time again. We should be in perpetual awe of the kindness of God, the mercies of God. It's because of His great love we are not consumed. His compassions never fail, his mercies are new every morning.”The Israelites were quick to forget God's care for them and were quick to turn away from Him because of fear. Susie also battled fear her whole life. However, she learned to face them through God's strength.[33:00] The Power of Words and DeclarationsFaith declarations are our statement of who God is, that God loves us and will fulfill His promises to us.Brain retraining is meant to help us identify ourselves as sons and daughters of God.Both of these practices help interrupt rogue thoughts by being spoken aloud. Speak your declarations over your life especially those that resonate with you.[39:07] Slaying Your Inner CriticUnresolved hurts and self-contempt create opportunities for the enemy; resolving them in God's love closes these openings.Seek support to process unresolved hurts in the light of God's love and trust the Holy Spirit to guide and correct them.[40:37] Susie: “When you allow those hurts, those hard parts of your story to go unresolved in light of God's love, they're like open loops and they're opportunities for the enemy to accuse God and accuse you.”[43:24] Imprinting Your Hope, Faith, and Belief in God in Your HeartSusie is always striving to get closer to God. Recently, she attended a conference with Dr. Reimer. The conference became a safe space to bring out these unresolved pasts into God's light.Despite new traumas, remembering God's love and focusing on Him allows us to see through the enemy's lies.Keep your hope alive and you'll eventually learn how to let go of past trauma. Remember who God is, trust that He is good and that He loves you.About SusieSusie Larson is an author, speaker, and host of the popular radio show, Susie Larson Live.

Join Gina and Erica as they talk through new ways to apply the familiar verses of Psalm 23 into our lives. 

Pastor Sam Rainer preaches a verse-by-verse sermon series through the entire book of Romans. This sermon covers chapter five. Romans 5 reveals what faith unlocks: peace, joy, confidence, and endurance. But how? Through the hope of Christ and His work on our behalf.

Psalm 34 is an invitation to enjoy the goodness of God by exalting Him with others and experiencing Him yourself.

Psalm 19 reveals to us what we can know about God: first in creation, and second through His revealed Word to us. Like David, we can respond rightly in worship by repenting from the sins within us that we see and asking God for help to see the sins within us that we don't yet see.

In this message, we're reminded of the transformative power of God's love and grace. The central theme revolves around the concept of spiritual heart transplants, drawing from Titus 3:4-7. We're challenged to recognize that our own efforts and 'good works' are insufficient for salvation. Instead, it's God's mercy and the washing of regeneration through the Holy Spirit that saves us. This parallels beautifully with physical heart transplants, emphasizing that just as a new heart gives new life physically, accepting Christ gives us new life spiritually. The message encourages us to stop trying to 'interview' for salvation and instead embrace God's freely given grace. It's a call to move beyond surface-level changes and allow God to perform a complete spiritual overhaul in our lives.

The goodness of God is seen in the variety of natural pleasures which He has provided for His creatures. God might have been pleased to satisfy our hunger without the food being pleasing to our palates—how His benevolence appears in the varied flavors which He has given to meats, vegetables, and fruits! God has not only given us senses, but also that which gratifies them; and this too reveals His goodness.

A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The Goodness of God Subtitle: The Religious Affections Speaker: A. W. Pink Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Audiobook Date: 7/14/2025 Length: 9 min.

We're exploring why understanding the goodness of God changes the way we pray and the way we treat people. Jesus said: Ask, seek, knock. And He meant it. We believe that because God is good: We can come boldly in prayer and we can treat others with radical kindness—not based on their goodness, but His.

This week I want to talk about the goodness of God. I firmly believe the way we see God shapes our life and how we choose to live our life. Many of us have a wrong view on who God is. If we choose to look at God as someone who wants to bless us and someone who is working behind the scenes in all things I believe our perspective would shift.

“The Goodness of God: Defeating the Giants” 1 Samuel 17:48-51 Rev. John Allen explores lessons from the story of David and Goliath. Recorded live at Stonebridge United Methodist Church in McKinney, Texas. For more information, please visit www.mysumc.org.

God's goodness is not just a characteristic but His very nature, most perfectly displayed through Jesus Christ. Moses' story in Exodus reveals how God shows His goodness especially when we're at our lowest points. God displays His goodness through creation, His Word, and His gifts, but salvation through Jesus is His ultimate expression of goodness. We can respond to God's goodness by believing in Christ, doing good to others, practicing gratitude, and worshiping Him. By recognizing God's goodness daily, we can experience His transformative power even in difficult circumstances.

In this episode I discuss the Hebrew word for “Goodness.”

How do we see the faithfulness of God displayed even in the midst of the exile of God's covenant people? How is it that our faithful God can be trusted even when our circumstances lead us to believe the opposite? 

How do we see the faithfulness of God displayed even in the midst of the exile of God's covenant people? How is it that our faithful God can be trusted even when our circumstances lead us to believe the opposite? 

“The Goodness of God: So Now, What Do We Do?” Acts 2:1-4 Rev. John Allen looks at the power of Pentecost. Recorded live at Stonebridge United Methodist Church in McKinney, Texas. For more information, please visit www.mysumc.org.

I'm convinced that one of Satan's strategies is to cause us to get stuck in the “why” question. As humans, we want to understand. We want everything to be logical and rational. When life is hard we don't want to lean on faith, we want to stand on reason.Main Points:1. The Christian life is a journey of faith. Our knowledge is limited. I can't see and know everything about God and His ways. This present life won't always make sense to me. Neither will God and His plans. But I get to choose whether I will trust Him or not. 2. But there is a better question than “why”. Instead of asking why, we must move on to the question of “what now?” I like asking, “God, what do you want me to learn from this experience? What do I need to do to experience a greater measure of your peace and comfort? How can my faith be stronger? In which ways can I grow in my faith? How can I use this experience to help others? 3. When you are going through a difficult season, it's easy to experience a bit of spiritual amnesia. As we focus on the present difficulty, it's common to forget all the things God has already done for us.  But I'm confident that if you begin to reflect on your life, you'll see evidence of the goodness of God. Make a list and write down the many ways God has blessed your life.Today's Scripture Verses:Genesis 3:5 - “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”Psalm 145:9  - “The Lord is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made.”Psalm 31:19 - “How abundant are the good things that you have stored up for those who fear you, that you bestow in the sight of all, on those who take refuge in you.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

If God is good, why does He allow suffering? And if He can end it anytime, why is He taking so long?

Here's what I have come to believe. God has blessings planned for your future that you don't even know about yet. God is actively initiating blessings. His blessings are not an afterthought. They are not the results of leftovers from someone else's blessings. No God has designed plans to bless your life. Main Points:1. Have you ever experienced a blessing from God that you weren't expecting? I'm sure you have. Maybe you thought, “Wow! I didn't see that coming.2. As you navigate these challenges of life, it's here that you see the goodness and mercy of God. In sickness, he provides strength, peace, healing, and recovery. In the family, he provides forgiveness, restoration, peace, and guidance. In financial struggles, he makes a way where we couldn't see a way.3. Psalm 23 calls for faith and a belief in the goodness of God. Will we trust Him? Let's choose to believe that his goodness and mercy are following us every day. Today's Scripture Verses:Psalm 23:6 - “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
