In this message, Chip lays out four very specific ways God reveals His goodness and how you can be sure not to miss out on any of it.

Defining the goodness of God

-Revealed to Moses: (Exodus 33:19; 34:5-7)

  • Moses’ request: “Show me Your glory.” -Exodus 33:18
  • God’s promise: “All My goodness will pass before you.” -Exodus 33:19
  • God’s answer: Exodus 34:5-7

-Packer’s observation:

  • “Within the cluster of God’s moral perfections there is one in particular to which the term ‘goodness’ points – the quality which God specially singled out from the whole when proclaiming ‘all his goodness’ to Moses, He spoke of Himself as ‘abundant in goodness and truth’ (Exodus 34:6). This is the quality of generosity.”
  • “Generosity expresses the simple wish that others should have what they need to make them happy.” -J.I. Packer, Knowing God

-Tozer’s definition:

  • “The goodness of God is that which disposes Him to be kind, cordial, benevolent, and full of good will toward men. He is tenderhearted and of quick sympathy… By His nature He is inclined to bestow blessedness and He takes holy pleasure in the happiness of His people.” -A.W. Tozer, Knowledge of the Holy

-Scripture’s declaration: Psalm 84:11

How does God reveal His goodness to us?

  1. Through NATURAL blessings -Psalm 145:7-9, 16-17
  2. Through SPECIFIC deliverances -Psalm 107
  3. Through HIS SON, Jesus -Romans 5:8; 8:32

How are we to respond to God’s goodness?

  1. REPENT and receive God’s greatest good gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ. -Romans 2:4
  2. SURRENDER your life and future fully to the lordship of Christ. -Romans 12:1
  3. CLAIM God’s promise that you will NEVER miss out on any good thing as long as you live. -Psalm 84:11
