Many times, we say “God is good” when something good happens to us or a blessing (usually financial) comes our way. But God’s goodness is part of His character, who HE is, His Being. Therefore we should say “God is good” in good and bad times, in happiness and tragedy, in plenty and in want. Because in the difficult, tragic, terrible times, God is still good because that is part of His character.
Drop the “bad habit” of saying “God is good” in good times only. Because He is always good, whether you receive a blessing or not, whether your wallet has lots of cash or is empty, whether someone gets healed or dies. In good times, just say “thank You, Lord”!
