His goodness is beyond our ability to comprehend, but not our ability to experience. Our hearts will take us where our heads can’t fit. Understanding is vital, but it often comes through experiencing God.
We Need To Experience His Goodness. Daily devotional by Bill Johnson
“Trust In The Lord With All Your Heart, And Lean Not On Your Ow N Understanding”. —Proverbs 3:5
Things are about to change. The greatest harvest of souls of all time is about to come in, and it won’t come because of our advanced skills in preaching, our use of media, or even our powerful music. Each of those areas has importance, but they do not exist unto themselves.
They are important in that they are vehicles that carry the greatest revelation of all time—God is good, and He is a perfect Father.
His goodness is beyond our ability to comprehend, but not our ability to experience. Our hearts will take us where our heads can’t fit.
Understanding is vital, but it often comes through experiencing God. Faith for the journey of walking with God leads to encounters with God.
It results in a growing knowledge and understanding of truth, as in “ by faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God” (Heb. 11:3).
Having said that, one of the great commands of Scripture pertaining to the experience of His goodness is “taste and see that the Lord is good” (Ps. 34:8).
If you’ll taste it for yourself, you’ll see it more clearly. Your perception of truth will increase as you experience truth more deeply.
PRAYER
Lord, thank You that I don’t have to understand before I put my trust in You. You are good all the time.
