Core Truth #2: He is good.. so so so good.

" So the Lord gave Israel all the land which He had promised to give to their fathers, and they possessed it and lived in it. And the Lord gave them REST on every side, according to all that He had promised to their fathers, and no one of all their enemies stood before them; the Lord gave all their enemies into their hand. NOT ONE OF THE GOOD PROMISES WHICH THE LORD HAD MADE TO THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL FAILED; ALL CAME TO PASS" Joshua 21:43-45

*************************

"Praise the Lord!
For it is GOOD to sing praises to our God;
For it is pleasant and praise is becoming.
The Lord BUILDS UP Jerusalem;
He GATHERS the outcasts of Israel.
He HEALS the brokenhearted
And BINDS UP their wounds.
He COUNTS the number of the stars;
He NAMES all of them.
GREAT is our Lord and ABUNDANT in strength;
His understanding is INFINITE.
The Lord SUPPORTS the afflicted;
He BRINGS DOWN the wicked to the ground.

Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving;
Sing praises to our God on the lyre,
Who COVERS the heavens with clouds,
Who PROVIDES rain for the earth,
Who MAKES grass to grow on the mountains,
He GIVES to the beast its food
And to the young ravens which cry.

He does not delight in the strength of the horse;
He does not take pleasure in the legs of a man.
The Lord favors those who fear Him,
Those who WAIT for His lovingkindess.

Psalm 147: 1-11
