The Good Father

“I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the LORD Almighty.” — 2 Corinthians 6:18 (NKJV) No matter what kind of relationship you have or had with your biological father, don’t let the nature of that relationship distort your view of our heavenly Father. He is a good Father and He loves every single one of His children. He is a compassionate and kind Father, rich in grace and mercy. He is a faithful Father, who is always there when you need Him. He is a wise Father. His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts much higher than our thoughts. (Isaiah 55:9) He shows us the path of life. (Psalm 16:11). God is Jehovah Jireh, our provider. No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. (Psalm 84:11) Chase after Him as the first love of your life. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. —Isaiah 9:6b (NKJV)

“I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the LORD Almighty.” — 2 Corinthians 6:18 (NKJV) God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure (Ephesians 1:5 NLT). God takes great delight in His children. He is a good Father and as any good father, He takes care of His children. He wants nothing but the best for us. If you then, evil (sinful by nature) as you are, know how to give good and advantageous gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven [perfect as He is] give what is good and advantageous to those who keep on asking Him  (Matthew 7:11 AMP). Our heavenly Father is loving and faithful. Cast all your cares on Him because He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7).

No Separation

For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. — Romans 8:38-39 (NKJV) May you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is (Ephesians 3:18 NLT). Be totally convinced that absolutely nothing can get between us and the love God has for us. His love has no boundaries. The love God lavishes on us is limitless. It comes splashing in, wave after wave. Whatever you are going through at this present time, know that God's love is surrounding you. He will work everything together for good, because He is a good, good Father!
